Subject: Expected response from server not supporting v4
Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2011 13:31:38 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E4A23E2.3020103@gluster.com> (raw)

Hi All

The following thread discusses the behaviour when the client does not 
support v4:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.nfs/36928/

OTOH, when the server does not support v4, for eg. Gluster NFS server, 
where we support only v3, I believe v4 client will attempt to connect 
directly to port 2049 and receive connection failure errors on TCP. Does 
the current nfs client handle the situation where this results in a timeout 
for mount? We're hearing  a report of a timeout occurring on the RHEL6 
client because the server does not have v4 support. Could someone please 
shed some light on how this behaviour is handled at present? Thanks
