"Stale file handle" error

[Predrag Punosevac]

Which computer are you using? The stale file handles is NFS client problem
which can be only fix by rebooting the host. I might need to reboot file
server hosting project and data folders as well but that will not fix the
client side.. I was unable the other day to clear stale ZFS snapshots from
the same server. In spite of  the fact that the file server was trashed in
June by a fellow grad student I take a full responsibility for being a fool
and allowing lab members to create and excessively use public directory.
Will not happen in the future.

I did apply multiple bandaids but it appears that more invasive procedure
will be necessary to fix the fallout. Thanks for you report.
