hi all

have 2 windows servers 2008 r2 enterprise configured nfs storage server in (active/passive) replication cluster.
nfs storage mounted on linux servers.
every time power on environment, find nfs become not responding(from linux servers side) several minutes , responding(the services on nfs servers , running , there isn't errors in event viewer)
attitude keeps repeating while (may hour or two) , after works fine.
happens after power on environment.

ideas might cause this?

additional information:

  • the physical storage sas configured raid 5.
  • powering on sequence:
  1. power on physical storage
  2. power on windows nfs servers
  3. power on linux servers

  3. confirm ip configuration on nfs client , servers correct
  4. confirm correct nfs version enabled
