Thank you Frank,
Weka (my company) has had a few issues with the NFS 16 group limitation as
well as file locking. We utilize an "Native" NFS solution which we are
transitioning from to a Ganesha implementation actually in a later Weka
version. For this customer they couldn't wait for that feature. In this
case Wekafs is mounted on a customer host which in turn is presenting a
stand-alone Ganesha instance. When logging on to the ganesha server
file/dir operations have no issue and files/dirs are accessible and visible
on the ganesha server where weka is mounted. I also believe this is ganesha
version 2.8.3 as far as I know. I'm working on trying to recreate this in
AWS. Frank, I think I emailed before and you responded to an earlier issue
where we couldn't reproduce but the files eventually became available
whereas this instance it seems they don't. While the reproduction is still
underway are there any settings related to this type of situation?

What underlying filesystem?
We may need some debug logs and/or tcpdump traces to figure out what’s
going wrong.

Thank you Daniel for your reply,
If you have 2 folders, one nested, /dir1/dir2 and you issue an ls command
in dir1. It won't show dir2 however you can cd into that directory
directly.
The ganesha config is as follows:
###################################################
NFSV4
{
DomainName =
lmco.com
<
https://avanan.url-protection.com/v1/url?o=http%3A//lmco.com&g=NTg3Zj...

}
NFS_CORE_PARAM
{
NFS_Port = 2049;
MNT_Port = 20048;
Rquota_Port = 875;
NLM_Port = 32803;
NFS_Protocols = 3,4;
}
EXPORT_DEFAULTS
{
Access_Type = RW;
Manage_Gids = true;
Protocols = 3,4;
Transports = TCP;
}
EXPORT
{
# Export Id (mandatory, each EXPORT must have a unique Export_Id)
Export_Id = 4;
# Exported path (mandatory)
Path = /scratch;
# Pseudo Path (required for NFS v4)
Pseudo = /scratch;
# Required for access (default is None)
# Could use CLIENT blocks instead
# Exporting FSAL
FSAL {
Name = VFS;
}
}
Thank you

I'm not sure I'm understanding the problem here. Is it that you can
list a file but not see it's contents? Or is it that you cannot list a
file, but can still open the file if you use a full path to it? Is it
files, or directories, or both?
What version of Ganesha are you using? What FSAL are you using?
