We had two servers reboot hard earlier in the week. They came up and looked fine from an OS perspective. However, two NFS mount points for the application didn’t mount. The problem is that the mount points are, I believe, entirely empty until a process runs and puts files there, at which point they get picked up by the app server.
So, the mount point may not have any info or data in it by default.
Is there any way we can monitor the mount points? In the past, our Linux Admin would do a test whenever patching/rebooting happened, but a new team application support team doesn’t appear to do that and we’re getting called out on not knowing the NFS mounts were down.
Any thoughts?
