Description JianHong Yin 2013-12-05 07:29:13 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1038463 +++

Description of problem:
Inconsistent variable naming style in /etc/sysconfig/nfs
a user echo "RPCMOUNTDARGS=\"-f /etc/exports.new\"" >>/etc/sysconfig/nfs
and restart nfs, but the config not become effective...

so we find the problem:
[root@dhcp12-144 ~]# grep ARGS /etc/sysconfig/nfs
RPCNFSDARGS=""
RPCIDMAPDARGS=""
RPCGSSDARGS=""
RPCSVCGSSDARGS=""
BLKMAPDARGS=""
#RPCNFSDARGS="--no-tcp"
[root@dhcp12-144 ~]# grep OPTS /etc/sysconfig/nfs
RPCRQUOTADOPTS=""
RPCMOUNTDOPTS="-f /etc/exports"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
all version from RHEL5 6 7

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:
[root@dhcp12-144 ~]# grep ARGS /etc/sysconfig/nfs
RPCNFSDARGS=""
RPCIDMAPDARGS=""
RPCGSSDARGS=""
RPCSVCGSSDARGS=""
BLKMAPDARGS=""
#RPCNFSDARGS="--no-tcp"
[root@dhcp12-144 ~]# grep OPTS /etc/sysconfig/nfs
RPCRQUOTADOPTS=""
RPCMOUNTDOPTS="-f /etc/exports"

Expected results:
[root@dhcp12-144 ~]# grep ARGS /etc/sysconfig/nfs
RPCNFSDARGS=""
RPCIDMAPDARGS=""
RPCGSSDARGS=""
RPCSVCGSSDARGS=""
BLKMAPDARGS=""
#RPCNFSDARGS="--no-tcp"
# and follow two
RPCRQUOTADARGS=""
RPCMOUNTDARGS="-f /etc/exports"

# delete RPCRQUOTADOPTS RPCMOUNTDOPTS, but
RPCRQUOTADOPTS RPCMOUNTDOPTS still available for backport compatible;

Comment 2 Steve Dickson 2013-12-05 14:58:33 UTC

It is true there is an inconstancy in the name convention,
unfortunately the current name is an established API.

So making changes at this point would break that API and
make it harder for people to move from RHEL6 to RHEL7
