I do not know if it is relevant but I came from open Indiana and it had a similar issue where nfsv4 had a bug that wouldn't unlock files Valrhona <valrhona@gmail.com> wrote: Not sure if this is the same issue, but I had the same behavior with Windows 8.1 on my laptop; everything has been fine for many months with clients running Win 7, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, OpenIndiana and XStreamOS (Illumos-based). But the Win 8.1 laptop causes NFSv4 to lock up, and (obviously) blocks the rest of the clients from accessing the server when it does, until NFS is reset. Interestingly, it doesn't seem to do this immediately; NFSv4 works just fine for maybe 15 minutes before the lockup occurs, but I haven't exactly troubleshot the details. Is there a particular log file which might be helpful to examine? Thanks!
