Lustre discuss - Dec 2007 - evicting clients when shutdown cleanly?

Should I be seeing messages like:

Dec 14 12:06:59 nyx170 kernel: Lustre: MGS: haven''t heard from client  
dadccfac-8610-06e7-9c02-90e552694947 (at 141.212.30.185 at tcp) in 234  
seconds. I think it''s dead, and I am evicting it.

when the client was shut down cleanly?  and the lustre file system is  
mounted via /etc/fstab ?  The file system (i would hope) would be  
unmounted before the network device goes down when i put in _netdev  
in fstab.

Or will I still see these message when the client shuts down?

This was a minor problem that is fixed in the 1.6.4 release.
