NFS client doesn't show all the files listed (ls -l) on an mount coming from an Solaris ZFS NAS server.

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • NFS client doesn't show all the files listed (ls -l) on an mount coming from an Solaris ZFS NAS server, and happens at random timings.

  • Once the shares are unmounted/mounted, the files show up again, but the problem re-emerges randomly.

# ls -al /workspace/lob5

dr-xr-xr-x   4 root root    4 Apr  3  2013 .zfs
  • After remounting the NFSv4 mount directory, the listing seems fine.

  • Other servers that have this NFS mount mounted do not seem to have this problem. These servers have the same mount options for the NFS mount:
rw,nosuid,bg,hard,rsize=65536,wsize=65536,actimeo=0,nointr,timeo=600,_netdev,tcp
