This automount setup has been running non-virtualized for quite a while
without problems until last year. Never seen or heared about similar hangs
with automount before.
We have not been able to reproduce this error in laboratory conditions.
The productive system has 2TB data and the problem occurs totally
unpredictable with real live workload.
And there is no easy way to switch back to non-virtualized unless we
declare this whole project a failure.
