8.2.0-p1: Unsolicited notification from host

[Daisuke]

I use NFS to link 2 linux servers to FreeNAS. I run CentOS 5.8 x86_64/6.3 x86_64 on my linux servers and 8.2.0-p1 x64 on my NAS. See my NAS hardware specs.

Since I upgraded to latest version, I get a "Unsolicited notification from host X" every time I reboot any linux box. These are the values I use to automount the unix dataset on each server:

Code:

pluto:/mnt/nas/unix  /mnt/nas  nfs  defaults,noatime,tcp,nfsvers=3,rsize=32768,wsize=32768  0 0

I use the default settings for NFS service with asynchronous mode enabled, like I use it on previous version. I thought 8.2 will have NFSv4 available, but unfortunately is not. The solution to this error is to do all the mounts as NFSv4, which is not possible with FreeNAS. Going in circles, I know.

This error, combined with the ahcich0 timeouts makes me regret I upgraded to 8.2.0. I never had any issues on 8.0.4 version.

I reported the issue into a ticket, is definitely related to NFS shares. Apparently this was not happening in BETA3.
