What can I do, If the NFS server is rebooting/offline? 
I mean the clients just wait and wait and wait... 

I tried to set 

timeo=5,retrans=2 

mount options when mounting nfs in fstab on client side = 
still no luck, clients are just waiting... 
Can I set a timeout somewhere? :D 

Thank you for any tips
