When a host goes down, the share connections should be automatically reestablished using a different share server. The Linux CIFS client doesn't seem to support this, although persistent handles are supported. If a host goes down, the share becomes unavailable, while the client seems to enter an endless loop, attempting to use the same share server address. Subsequent mount attempts will fail as well. SMB Witness support would also be desired, as this would reduce failover time (currently marked as TODO[1]). I've tested Ubuntu 16.04 (4.4.0) and Ubuntu 18.04 (4.15.0) as well as the latest upstream kernel (4.19). When using 4.15.0, the SOFS share cannot be mounted at all, as described in a different bug report[2].
