Hi!
Hopefully a simple question. Is there any work in making the linux nfs client able to survive a nfs server failover to another IP? Meaning, I have an NFS server, on a node called ‘cheetah', and it’s HA side is 'puma', and a client named 'lizard’. If lizard has an established mount on ‘cheetah’, then cheetah suffers some event, and puma takes over it’s storage, but the IP changes, can lizard try it’s IO to the new IP? Assuming the fsid, data in the filesystem, export permissions are all fine, the only change is the IP the client is talking to goes away, but there is a new IP it could use.
Is there any work in a client failover like that? nfsv4.1 or pnfs anything like that?
Thanks!
