What are the CIFS timeouts?
Issue
- What are the CIFS timeouts?
- Does the CIFS filesystem become accessible automatically after CIFS server is shut down and started again later without manually remounting the CIFS share?
- What happens to the CIFS client after a timeout? Are some messages are output to
/var/log/messages? Is the CIFS filesystem is automatically unmounted? Does the CIFS client keep trying to recover the accessibility until the disconnection is resolved?
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux
- CIFS (Common Internet File System) client
