Hello.

We just installed Proxmox Cluster from 4 nodes. We have mounted NFS storage from NETAPP to use in Proxmox.
Launched some instances and we see 2 of 4 nodes have issue with NFS storage and every 20-60 minutes we see these errors in the journalctl -u pvestatd --no-pager -n 200

We use INTEL 10G SFP+ network cards with DAC cables.
Servers Dell R640
Using NFS v3 - options vers=3,rsize=65536,wsize=65536,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=3

Anybody has this issue before? Ping is working fine. Netapp storage is working with 10%-20% load it servers other UBUNTU and XENSERVER clients with no issues.
