If the file is empty, the NFSv4 server has no choice but to return
NFSERR_NOGRACE for all reclaim requests. Although correct, this is
a highly undesirable occurrence, so the file should not be lost if
at all possible. Nfsd will not create the file if it does not
exist and will simply log a failure to start, in the hopes that the
file can be recovered from a backup. To move the file, you must edit
at all possible. The backup copy of the file is maintained
and used by the
.Xr nfsd 8
to minimize the risk of this occurring.
To move the file, you must edit
the nfsd sources and recompile it. This was done to discourage
accidental relocation of the file.
