They appear as offline in the web interface, and I/O is very slow, even to non-NFS destinations.<br><br>Is this a known issue where a stale or timed out NFS mount will cause the system to misbehave quite poorly? Would an alternate network storage protocol such as iSCSI perform better in that scenario?<br><br>--Tim<br></div></body></html>
