Some NFS clients will return an error to the client applications if the
lock cannot be reclaimed. Other clients (for example, the Linux 2.6
NFS client) will not return any error. If no error is returned by the
client, the application may proceed under the false assumption that
the lock has been granted. Data corruption may be the result.
To prevent this situation, locking should be enabled only if your
clients are partitioned so that all clients needing a particular lock are
using the same Virtual NFS Service IP address. If a failover occurs, all
of the clients will lose their locks. They can then reclaim those same
locks on the new node without conflicts from outside clients.
The options are as follows:
-q
Show the current status of NLM locking in the cluster (either
enabled or disabled).
-e
Enable NLM locking in the cluster. No reboot is necessary; the
change is effective almost immediately and may affect clients.
-d
Disable NLM locking in the cluster. No reboot is necessary; the
change is effective almost immediately and may affect clients.
