Hi Pete,
The stale filehandle message was added to try to track down the cause of
these sporadic failures. The first line shows the filehandle the client
is currently using, and the second line shows the result of a new lookup
-- i.e., what the server thinks the fh _should_ be. What's really
puzzling is that in your case the two are identical, making it appear
that the failure is spurious.
I would have expected the two fh values to differ in some way, or for a
lookup error to occur when trying to get the current fh (e.g. if someone
else deleted the file on the server.)
Are you using the knfs server or the unfsd? Any pattern to the messages?
Regards,
Bill
