Hello fellow managers,

I need to make a NFS-server redundant.

Today we got a Tru64 v5.1 3-node TruCluster with a SAN.

Is it possible to failover a NFS service to another node if the
"master" dies? A concern is stale filehandles, anyone have any
experice of this?

 | linux 3 |-nfs-------| ----------- |
  ---------- |----| Tru64 NFS |<--
