This occurs on an [NFS] client machine when you try and access a file that no longer exists on the server. Since [NFS] is a stateless protocol, the server cannot tell if a client has a file open, so when it is unlink(2)'d and a [NFS] client has recently used the file it appears as .nfsXXXXXXX for a short time, after which it is expired and removed from the disk. Any further attempts to access this file from a [NFS] client will result in "Stale [NFS] Handle". |
