Hi Pradeep,

thanks for your response.

I would think so.
Since that patch arrived in Kernel 3.16, it would not even try to follow
the referral as it did before. When I just revert this specific patch
for the kernel, it works.

On the referrer server, we use nfs-ganesha 2.4.5-2 with Christoph's
patch for nfs referral
(https://sources.debian.org/src/nfs-ganesha/2.4.5-2%7Ebpo9+1/debian/patches/nfs-ganesha-nfsrefer.patch).
The actual NFS server is a NetApp cluster.

I'm not so sure right now if it is not maybe a bug in nfs-ganesha (that
maybe even got fixed in the meantime), so I thought, maybe you know.

Thanks,
Moritz
