Instead of switching to cifs, I tried swapiness=100, and just doubling
up on the backup job:
25 23 * * * disk-backup || (sleep 100; disk-backup)
Last night the first backup failed, second backup worked. Yippee.
The first backup failed by a simple test for the presence of a file the
nfs mount. I wonder is there some kind of cleanup event that the first
nfs mount failure causes that I could run on this system periodically?
