svcauth_gss_proxy_init: gss_proxy_save_rsc failed

Posted on

I have two twin nodes, allegedly identical (well, maybe not that identical given this issue) that run RHEL 8.10 as NFS servers inside a freeIPA cluster.

At some point one of the two started producing this message into dmesg log every approx. 15 minutes:

[  +0.007326] svcauth_gss_proxy_init: gss_proxy_save_rsc failed (-22)

The only thing I could trace back is a boot message related to gssproxy and some issues in /proc/:

The other node works smoothly with the same setup albeit there must be something different since no error (is that even an error?) can be seen. The NFS serving functionality appears to be working correctly anyway.

Any hint on where to look further?
