NFS Storage Bug: Removing an NFS does not unmount the share on the servers

[Dan Schaefer]

I ran across this bug when migrating images and backups between storage backends that happen to be NFS shares. When using the Web GUI to remove a storage (Datacenter-->Storage), the NFS share remains mounted on the all of the servers in the cluster (cat /proc/mounts). I figured it was just a matter of waiting for the changes to take effect and propagate, but the NFS shares are still mounted after 3 days.

Before I submit a bug, has anyone else experienced this issue?

You need to manually umount NFS shares.

I've had the same issue a few times. The same NFS shares that are set up and mounted in the PVE web admin, cannot be unmounted from it. If it's responsible for mounting, it should be responsible for unmounting. After all the role of the web admin is to ease this kind of management. Unless Dietmar misunderstood the problem, I wouldn't expect the user cherry-pick and unmount a share on all servers one by one when they've been set up with automated cluster management, for example. It's most probably a bug.

me too (http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/18...rage-from-web-gui-VG-and-target-still-mounted)
At least, it could check if there's any process still using them and, as an option, ask if user needs to unmount shares it created...

I know it is a time ago. But...
What is the status of this feature? Is it planed to build in an unmount or an fusermount? I think it will be a really good idea. Usefull feature.

AFAIK nobody sent a patch ...
