<p> </p>
<p>Thanks for instant reply.</p>
Could you turn off html formatting on your mail?

<p>The option you mentioned is working. 'exportfs -f'</p>
<p>Actually it is not mentioned anywhere - even when checked for options:</p>
<p>#> exportfs -h<br>exportfs: invalid option -- 'h'<br>usage: exportfs [-aruv] [host:/path]<br></p>
Sorry, it looks like the help test could be improved! Patches welcomed....
It is documented in the exportfs man page.

<p>But - when tried to give - '-f' option it is working.</p>
<p>Then on checking the code for exportfs - got to know the working of '-f' option.</p>
<p>I think it should work. I will check with a number of scenario - to check there is no blockage for other mount points - at the time 'exportfs -f' is being run. Please reply if it wont :)</p>
If no clients are using the export, it should work.
