They use NFS to store and transfer data between server and clients. But whenever failover happens, the client can't connect to backup server although backup server has the same IP and hostname and same configuration at that time. "NFS server is not responding, still trying" I use this command: #service nfs restart on backup server, it is not useful. What should I do on backup server so that client can get connection with it? By the way I use Pfilter (iptables) on both servers. Thank you Eric --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Hello, everybody
 
I installed nfs on my cluster system, two head nodes(one is primary and another is backup) with two clients. They use NFS to store and transfer data between server and clients. But whenever failover happens, the client can't connect to backup server although
backup server has the same IP and hostname and same configuration at that time.
 
"NFS server is not responding, still trying" 
 
I use this command: #service nfs restart    on backup server, it is not useful.
 
What should I do on backup server so that client can get connection with it? By the way I use Pfilter (iptables) on both servers.

Thank you

Eric
