We did not implement this because we don’t track it. And we don’t track it 
because there is no reason it will ever be very accurate.



The problem is that there is no reason a client need ever send an unmount, and 
after a server restart, there is no reason a client need send a mount. So you 
have clients that disappear without telling the server, and you have servers 
that reboot, and then the clients just keep marching on without missing a beat. 
So conceivably, you could have situation where if you tracked, all you would 
have is clients that were in fact NOT actively using the server…



And the mount dump would not identify the NFSv4 clients…



Statistics collection should be sufficient to know who is using the server.

Subject: [Nfs-ganesha-devel] reason for not implementing dump request



Hi All,

Is there a reason for not implementing dump request in NFS ganesha 
(mnt_Dump.c)? Is there a place where we track mount entries?



Thanks,

Naresh
