A NFS share can be mounted multiple times on the same mountpoint when using the option 'noac' on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Issue
- When attempting to mount the NFS share with the same mount options on a mount point more then once, the mount command exits with an error message:
mount.nfs: <mount> is already mounted of busy.
However this error message is not seen when mounting the same NFS share multiple times when the noac mount option is used.
Environment
