Disable NFS Storage --> Mail error.

[Porshok]

hello !

I have unlinked my NFS storage from my array of 3 proxmox servers (4.1 ver)

After i have free it of any VM. the storage was totally empty.

but now all of the 3 proxmoxs send me every 24 hours an error mail:

content:

"run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/mlocate exited with return code 1"

and i can't issue the df -h command.

i don't know if the origin of the problem is the same. Do someone know how i can rid of this error ?

Thank you !

Have you unmounted the NFS storage on every node? This is not going automaticly. That the df -h command don't work anymore looks like the nfs storgate is really gone away. So you can reboot the server to unmount or force unmount, with

fusermount -uz /mnt/pve/mountpoint

Don't use the TAB key, shell hangs up because NFS fails.

Sorry i was very busy last month,

thank you for your answer =)

i didn't have the time to fix that issue.

I used the command, i cant' shutdown the server (production state =) )

fusermount -uz /mnt/pve/mountpoint

As you told me.

nothing changed

mointpoints are still there, i can see them with ls command. (ls -la do not work, like df -h)

Maybe that's because of the feature that allow NFS storage to be spread on all nodes of the proxmox cluster once we have declared them.

possible scenario :

I manually unmount on node1, node2 and node3 remount it on node1.

Any suggestion ?

Mountpoints are alway there, the will not be deleted. The fusermountcommand works only if you disable first the storage in PVE in the webinterface or with pvesm. I use the fusermount with the builded systemdservice for shutdown, this was always working fine in all situations.

I have done that before, i have removed the nfs storage with the web interface.

And as expected they disappeared from the GUI at that point that was good for me and i have shutdown the NAS

But i started to receive error mail. and i still can see the removed mountpoint in /mnt/pve

So i don't see anymore my LUNs from the GUI
