Gary Tully commented on ARTEMIS-3030:
-------------------------------------
note, a combination of exists and lastModified is in place on 5.x, there is a
periodic keep alive check that checks. That may depend on file attributes not
being cached. I recall at one stage if someone deleted the lock file, without a
periodic check it would not be detected. The check does need to be more
proactive.

> Journal lock evaluation fails when NFS is temporarily disconnected
> ------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARTEMIS-3030
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3030
> Project: ActiveMQ Artemis
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Broker
> Affects Versions: 2.16.0
> Reporter: Apache Dev
> Priority: Blocker
>
> Same scenario of ARTEMIS-2421.
> If network between Live Broker (B1) and NFS Server is disconnected (for
> example rejecting its TCP packets with iptables), after the lock lease
> timeout this happens:
> * Backup server (B2) becomes Live
> * When NFS connectivity of B1 is restored, B1 remains Live
> So both broker are live.
> Issue seems caused by \{{java.nio.channels.FileLock#isValid}} used in
> \{{org.apache.activemq.artemis.core.server.impl.FileLockNodeManager#isLiveLockLost}},
> because it is always returning true, even if in the meanwhile the lock was
> lost and taken by B2.
> Do you suggest to use specific mount options for NFS?
> Or the lock evaluation should be replaced with a more reliable mechanism? We
> notice that \{{FileLock#isValid}} is returning a cached value (true), even
> when NFS connectivity is down, so it would be better to use a validation
> mechanism that forces querying the NFS server.
