It might but it depends upon what's in the local node's cache. If the data isn't there then NFS should try to go back to the source and you will get the stale handle. But if the data is in cache then the data is taken from cache and _I think_ you won't encounter the stale file handle problem. But I don't know for sure - good question for the CacheFS mailing list.<br /> <br /> Jeff That’s a really good question. It might but it depends upon what’s in the local node’s cache.

I assume this was due to code problems ? </p> CacheFS was part of CentOS 5.2 then it got pulled in 5.3. I assume this was due to code problems ?
