Yes, I am absolutely sure of this.
I considered using the snapshot tool, however I need to reduce
dependencies to an absolute minimum (as one target environment is
very strict on allowing additional software installs)..
I use the snapshots to get a consistent file-backup with history.
This one puzzles me to no end.
Hmm, that is very odd..
Maybe the FS is stuffed somehow :(
I read somewhere else about NFS issues on 7-RC* where snapshots have
been used. In particular - and this is something I'm seeing too -
changing the exports file or reloading mountd gives the following in
messages log:
Feb 19 18:58:09 anduin mountd[38867]: can't delete exports for /tmp:
Invalid argument

home: Cross-device link
Feb 19 18:58:09 anduin mountd[38867]: can't delete exports for /opt:
Cross-device link
Can this be related? I'm starting to worry here - what will be the
long-term consequences if snapshots are stuck around in this
"invisible" state?
