Hi, I was just wondering, within the whole complexity of hosted-engine. Would it be possible for the hosted-engine ha-agent control the mount point? I'm basing this off a few people I've been talking to who have their NFS server running on the same host that the hosted-engine servers are running. Most normally also running that on top of gluster. The main motive for this, is currently if the nfs server is running on the localhost and the server goes for a clean shutdown it will hang because the nfs mount is hard mounted and as the nfs server has gone away, we're stuck at an infinite hold waiting for it to cleanly unmount (which it never will) If it's possible for instead one of the ha components to unmount this nfs mount when it shuts down, this could potentially prevent this. There are other alternatives and I know this is not the "supported" scenario, but just hoping to bounce a few ideas. Thanks, Andrew
