Sorry for the spam. Setting up a nfsserver with same ip, hostname and shared directory restored the connection so I was able to umount. Best, Robin On 04/24/2014 11:10 AM, Robin Roth wrote:
Hi!
a NFS server died and I have a nfs-client which still has a mount using nfs3 with option hard and no option intr. I failed to unmount, even "umount -fl /mountpoint " just hangs. With this hanging mount I can't use df, quota, ...
I'm aware it was not the best idea to use hard without intr, but with this said and not being able to restart the server, is there a way to force the umount?
I already tried to setup a fake interface with the original ip and also setup a nfs server at the original ip with the same share. Both attempts did not help.
Thanks, Robin
