clear_locks on Linux?
Subsystems (2)
Hi ,
1.You can definitely restart nfsd so that clients
will reacquire their locks.
2.If you only want to release all locks , use
kill -9 <lockd pid> but in this case all clients will looose their locks permanently.
I dont think that currently there is any way to
release locks held by --a-- particlar client.
regards,
kiran

Solaris has a command
clear_locks, to remove locks held by a specific remote host.Does Linux have a similar command? I'm having trouble finding one. I have very occasionally seen a situation where a client crashes hard, leaving a file lock held on an NFS server, and I want to have a way to remove it.

Alternatively, could I achieve a similar effect by restarting lockd to encourage all active clients to reacquire their locks?
