Hi,

I just installed a cluster of 2 nodes to provide High Availability NFS/Samba
service with Hearbeat (0.4.9.1).
The exported filesystem is XFS.
The kernel is 2.4.18 patched with xfs-1.1

When I stop Heartbeat daemon on the nodeA, the shared ip swithes to the
nodeB, and samba clients still access the files.

But, I'm now observing that after failover, nfs clients are unable to use
the  filesystem exported by the backup server until I unmount it and mount
it again. Otherwise, I get "stale NFS file handle" messages.

Is this a known issue? Is there a way to fix it ?

I find on google that there was a known issue with exporting ReiserFS over
NFS, but it seems to be

please let me know.

regards,
Hugo.
