Thank you all for your answers,
as a first selection, i'm trying to get cownfsd working. The
serverpart (cownfsd itself) seems to work pretty simple, but i've got
problems to mount it...
I didn't find any documentation about cownfs, neither at the xen-*
lists nor at google at all.
As written on russross.com, cownfsd has been developed with xen in
mind, i'm wondering that
there's no discussion about it's use?
Did some of you work with it succesfully? If so, how does it interact
with the existing rpc.mountd/
rpc.nfsd ?
Russ wrote, that the native rpc.mountd has to be killed, but if i do
so, an example
xen-02:~# mount -t nfs xen-01:/xenvm/mosiXen-01 /mnt
will lead (on every host, even on localhost) to:
mount: RPC: Program/version mismatch; low version = 3, high version = 3
i recompiled the nfs-utils and the util-linux (2.12r) on every dom0,
but this didn't show any effect, the dmesg shows everytime the same
message:
nfs warning: mount version older than kernel
on the server, cownfsd shows following error(?) :
xen-01:~# cownfsd -debug /xenvm/mosiXen-01
fsinfo (fhToFake failed in nfs_api_debug.ml) -> nfs3err_stale error
getattr (fhToFake failed in nfs_api_debug.ml) -> nfs3err_stale error
fsinfo (fhToFake failed in nfs_api_debug.ml) -> nfs3err_stale error
getattr (fhToFake failed in nfs_api_debug.ml) -> nfs3err_stale error
fsinfo (fhToFake failed in nfs_api_debug.ml) -> nfs3err_stale error
timings:
getattr: count= 2 total= 0.00072622 avg= 0.00036311
fsinfo: count= 3 total= 0.06539297 avg= 0.02179766
getattr (fhToFake failed in nfs_api_debug.ml) -> nfs3err_stale error
fsinfo (fhToFake failed in nfs_api_debug.ml) -> nfs3err_stale error
getattr (fhToFake failed in nfs_api_debug.ml) -> nfs3err_stale error
i left the whole log intact, since i don't know how (or even when) the
"timings" msg
appears. every single trial to mount results in two lines (fsinfo...
and getaddr ...)
Just as additional info, a complete rootfs, which can be chroot'ed or
with kernel-nfs used in a domU, is natively at /xenvm/mosiXen.
/xenvm/mosiXen-01 is an empty directory with one single file named
.mount with one line:
write "/xenvm/mosiXen"
All things are currently done as root. rpc is running as shown below:
on dom0 at xen-01 (currently the nfs server):
xen-01:~# ps xa | grep rpc
4321 ? S< 0:00 [rpciod/0]

Well, i know that this is not exactly a xen problem, but i assume it's
very xen-related.
Maybe someone can point me to a solution?
Thanks!
