[Labs-l] NFS issues, please deploy fire

As seen on a few instances today;
[  825.247230] svc: failed to register lockdv1 RPC service (errno 97).
[463494.148261] svc: failed to register lockdv1 RPC service (errno 97).
[1442873.402458] svc: failed to register lockdv1 RPC service (errno 97).

Logins also seem to be rather laggy, ganglia shows spiky cpu on the nfs 
instance.

Any chance of moving home dirs over to the same cluster as project 
storage any time soon?

NFS isn't really scalable in the current state and is rather laggy 
randomly, also if that instance where to die everyone would be screwed.

Considering that opening up registration also potentially increases 
active users, it might be an idea to solve the issue before it seriously 
becomes one and we have a whole gluster like downtime.

TL;DR NFS should DIAF and we should use gluster/ceph for user data.
