   An update that has three recommended fixes can now be
   installed.

Description:


   This update for nfs-client includes the following changes:

   * Adds locking to avoid a race which could have caused
   high-available NFS exports to become unavailable when
   multiple cluster services failed over at the same time due
   to changes made to exportfs done by multiple processes in
   parallel overwriting each other.
   * Fixes issues with NFSv4 pseudo root management which
   was interfering with using different types of host
   identifiers (e.g. netgroup vs IP address) on different
   exports.
   * Removes a duplicate MOUNTD_PORT variable from
   sysconfig/nfs.
