[OmniOS-discuss] Win 8.1 NFS client

[Valrhona]

Thanks for the suggestion. NFS timed out again, and I ran the command
you suggested:

root at dellt_server:~# svcs -xv
svc:/network/nfs/nlockmgr:default (NFS lock manager)
 State: maintenance since June 16, 2014 03:39:59 AM EDT
Reason: Restarting too quickly.
   See: http://illumos.org/msg/SMF-8000-L5
   See: man -M /usr/share/man -s 1M lockd
   See: /var/svc/log/network-nfs-nlockmgr:default.log
Impact: 1 dependent service is not running:
        svc:/network/nfs/server:default

By itself "svcs -xv" will not show any output if things are working.  The SMF service in question (here shown working properly) is:
