What is the default value for NFS retrans option?

Issue

• Looking at the "man 5 nfs" page for the retrans option, it states below:

    retrans=n      The  number  of  minor timeouts and retransmissions that
                      must occur before a major timeout occurs.   The  default
                      is  3  timeouts.   When a major timeout occurs, the file
                      operation is either aborted or a "server not responding"
                      message is printed on the console."

• A LoB thought they should see retrans=3 when they run, e.g. nfsstat -m, however, instead they see retrans=2. This is seen on both RHEL 5 and 6 hosts although interestingly the RHEL 6 man page has removed that the default setting.
