Description Stas Sergeev 2012-10-25 16:10:01 UTC
Description of problem:
After the online fedora update, NFS server silently stopped to work.
After lots of investigation I've found out that RPCNFSDCOUNT of
/etc/sysconfig/nfs is mishandled. If it is commented out, the
NFS server will fail to work. It appeared to be commented out
because I ended up with nfs.rpmnew where it was not commented.
The bug seems to be in
/lib/systemd/system/nfs-server.service
and the following change seems to fix the problem:

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nfs-utils-1.2.6-3.fc17.x86_64

How reproducible:
Easily

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Comment out RPCNFSDCOUNT in /etc/sysconfig/nfs
2. restart nfs.service
3. try to mount nfs
  
Actual results:
mount locks up forever, silently

Expected results:
mount should succeed

Additional info:

Comment 1 Stas Sergeev 2012-10-25 16:20:55 UTC
Additionally, I'd say that it is very bad
that no failure is reported, anywhere.
systemctl status  nfs.service
says nothing bad.
