Description jigar 2016-10-12 15:09:56 UTC
Description of problem: On RHEL7, with home mounted to a nfs server ( nfs version is nfs 4 ), when we create a file in /home/user/work-dir within a terminal, it does not show up in the gnome file explorer until we hit F5. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): glib2-2.42

How reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup up RHEL 7 with home mounted to NFS Server ( NFS4)
2. Try to create files using terminal 
3. If the files don't show up automatically, press F5 to refresh.

Actual results: The files don't show up automatically

Expected results: The files should show up automatically without a need to refresh.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 shipped it's final minor release on September 29th, 2020. 7.9 was the last minor releases scheduled for RHEL 7.
From intial triage it does not appear the remaining Bugzillas meet the inclusion criteria for Maintenance Phase 2 and will now be closed. 

From the RHEL life cycle page:
https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata#Maintenance_Support_2_Phase
"During Maintenance Support 2 Phase for Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 7,Red Hat defined Critical and Important impact Security Advisories (RHSAs) and selected (at Red Hat discretion) Urgent Priority Bug Fix Advisories (RHBAs) may be released as they become available."

If this BZ was closed in error and meets the above criteria please re-open it flag for 7.9.z, provide suitable business and technical justifications, and follow the process for Accelerated Fixes:
https://source.redhat.com/groups/public/pnt-cxno/pnt_customer_experience_and_operations_wiki/support_delivery_accelerated_fix_release_handbook  

Feature Requests can re-opened and moved to RHEL 8 if the desired functionality is not already present in the product. 

Please reach out to the applicable Product Experience Engineer[0] if you have any questions or concerns.
