Description Peter Lawler 2005-10-06 23:40:06 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050922 Fedora/1.0.7-1.1.fc4 Firefox/1.0.7

Description of problem:
On starting up, I get these errors in my logs:
NFSD: Using /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery as the NFSv4 state recovery directory
NFSD: recovery directory /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery doesn't exist



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel 2.6.13-1.1526_FC4

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start NFS


Actual Results:  Errors logged

Expected Results:  No errors

Additional info:

Marking as HIGH as I'm assuming missing 'recovery' could result in loss of data.

After upgrading to 2.6.13-1.1526_FC4smp I also see the same messages at each boot

Comment 2 Peter Lawler 2005-11-21 21:19:08 UTC
Still happening in 2.6.14-1.1637_FC4

Comment 3 Steve Dickson 2006-07-25 04:22:19 UTC
This is fixed in nfs-utils-1.0.8-3

Comment 4 Christian Iseli 2007-01-22 11:51:13 UTC
This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd.

Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and
either update the target product or close it ?

Thanks.
