Details

Description:
This issue seems to be fairly intermittent. I'm running a small cluster with PXE booting nodes, using a shared, read-only NFS root. Most of the time, when I try booting any of the nodes, it fails with:

http://hpaste.org/87128

But sometimes it succeeds:

http://hpaste.org/87129

As you see by the timestamps, this was just 2 minutes later, without actually touching anything on the NFS server - and the mount succeeds just fine.

The mount seems to work for a while after restarting the rpc-mountd service as well:

http://hpaste.org/87130

My exports look like this (the fsid values were added while trying to debug this):

There is a similar issue posted recently on the gentoo forums:

Additional info:
* package version(s)

util-linux 2.22.2-2
nfs-utils 1.2.6-4
linux 3.8.7-1

Steps to reproduce:
I've followed this guide: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Diskless_System
The root filesystem is nfs3.
