[lustre-discuss] Do old clients ever go away?

[William D. Colburn]

I was looking in /proc/fs/lustre/mgs/MGS/exports/, and I see ip
addresses in there that don't go anywhere anymore.  I'm pretty sure they
are gone so long that they predate the uptime of the mds.  Does a lost
client linger forever, or am I just wrong about when the machines went
offline in relation to the uptime of the MDS?
