Subject: How to make clients NOT block

Dear list,

we've had several servers block today because they all have a NFS mount point 
from a linux kernel 3.7.6 server. This is the fstab entry:

1.1.1.1:/nfsshare/all /shared nfs4 defaults,tcp,intr,relatime,async,acl 0 9

The NFS server crashed and was offline, that made all clients block. Even 
after the NFS server was up again, most clients were stuck to the point they 
had to be rebooted. What mount options should we use so clients don't block 
completely when the NFS server is gone? It's no problem to unmount the NFS 
share, or get errors, but the clients must not stop their work.
