Hello ActiveMQ users,

We have two hosts in each of our ActiveMQ v5.16.x clusters.

They both NFS mount the following at boot time via /etc/fstab
/opt/local/apache-activemq-5.16.0/data/kahadb
/opt/local/apache-activemq-5.16.0/data/amq-prod-cluster

The NFS mounts are provided by an EMC Isilon Scaled Out NAS. When they do 
maintenace on the Isilon, they reboot one of the nodes at a time. All too often 
this causes outages of our amq hosts. So, we stop activemq.service on the 
broker in slave mode before the Isilon maintenace, but still sometimes the amq 
nodes lose the NFS mounts.

Are there recommended NFS mount parameters?
Can kahadb be auto mounted?
Is SMB an option?

Here are the amq mount parameters:

[kxn2@amq-p01 ~]$ cat /etc/fstab |grep nomad

nomad-nfs.blue.psu.edu:/activemq_production     /opt/local/activemq/data/kahadb 
nfs     rw,nosuid       0       0
nomad-nfs.blue.psu.edu:/activemq_production     
/opt/local/activemq/data/amq-prod-cluster nfs     rw,nosuid       0       0

[kxn2@amq-p01 ~]$ sudo mount | grep nomad
nomad-nfs.blue.psu.edu:/activemq_production on 
/opt/local/apache-activemq-5.16.0/data/kahadb type nfs4 
(rw,nosuid,relatime,vers=4.0,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,namlen=255,hard,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,clientaddr=172.24.62.22,local_lock=none,addr=10.136.49.89)

nomad-nfs.blue.psu.edu:/activemq_production on 
/opt/local/apache-activemq-5.16.0/data/amq-prod-cluster type nfs4 
(rw,nosuid,relatime,vers=4.0,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,namlen=255,hard,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,clientaddr=172.24.62.22,local_lock=none,addr=10.136.49.89)

Thanks in advanced
