It's only the automount that hangs, and only since a few months ago. I had it happen again today when my LetsEncrypt cert renewed and the dovecot (IMAP) server restarted. Dovecot checks all the mountpoints (in case any have mail folders on them) and hung on restart. I shelled in and ran df and it also hung. I logged in yet another session and tried to ls the mountpoint and that hung completing the directory name. Here's what I see in /var/log/messages when dovecot hangs and I manually mount the shares from another shell session. SELinux is in permissive mode.

What we see is that if a system doesn't get its IPv6 address, NFSv4 goes preferentially for that, and if it has that, and looses it, it will *NOT* fall back to IPv4, but hangs. mark
