Hi all,
As is known to us all, gluster provides NFS mount. However, if the mount point 
fails, clients will lose connection to Gluster. While if we use gluster native 
client, this fail will have no effect on clients. For example:
mount -t glusterfs host1:/vol1  /mnt

If host1 goes down for some reason, client works still, it has no sense about 
the failure(suppose we have multiple gluster servers).  However, if we use the 
following:
mount -t nfs -o vers=3   host1:/vol1 /mnt

If host1 failed, client will lose connection to gluster servers.

Now, we want to use NFS way. Could anyone give us some suggestion to solve the 
issue?

Thanks

Zhenghua
