Hi Eugene,

Disabling blocklisting on eviction is a pretty standard config. In my
experience it allows clients resume their session cleanly without needing a
remount.

There's docs about this here:
https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/cephfs/eviction/#advanced-configuring-blocklisting

I don't have a good feeling if this will be useful for your network
intervention though... What are you trying to achieve? How long will
clients be unreachable?

Cheers, Dan
