It has been my experience that the failover has an extremely minimal impact to NFS clients. The giveback typically will impact the NFS client for 30-50 seconds

Hi Rafal,****
what kind of outages are visible for your NFS clients? Are you using the „hard“ mount option?****

Hi All.****
I have two FAS3210 in 7-mode Actvie/Active. I perform takeover/gieback and see that the outage is visible for clients for nfs mounts. From your experiences should it be so? I think that information about nfs sessions and IP address are moved to the takeover node so in theory it should not be visible.****
