APAR status

  • Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

  • AIX NFSv4 client does not show replica server information
    when the server is configured to use nfsroot (exname).
    In this case the filesystem root (as seen by the client)
    will not match what is actually exported. This causes
    the client to disregard the replica server information.
    The mount will work, but the "nfs4cl showfs" command will
    not show the alternate servers.
    

Local fix

  • Do not use nfsroot/exname configuration with replicas.
    

Problem summary

  • Changes are in common code path hence require some amount of
    testing clsoing as FIN
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix
