pacemaker fails with error "status=Timed out" when starting an NFS-based Filesystem resource initially after boot in a RHEL 7 High Availability cluster

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • The cluster management software, pacemaker, does not bring a Filesystem resource online properly after a cluster node is rebooted
Failed actions:
    fs-nfsFS_start_0 on node1.example.com 'unknown error' (1): call=211, status=Timed Out, exit-reason='none', last-rc-change='Wed Jun  3 10:03:23 2015', queued=0ms, exec=60003ms
  • pacemaker always fails to mount our NFS file system the first time while the system is booting. If we restart the resource afterwards it starts just fine.
  • Filesystem resource with fstype=nfs times out during start on boot:
