I haven't used Lucene with NFS. My understanding is that the problem is with lock files when they reside on the NFS server. Yes, you can change the location of lock files with a system property, but if you are using NFS to make the index accessible from multiple machines, then changing the lock file directory to a local directory doesn't make sense. However, it sounds like you are using a NFS-mounted partition simply because that's where you have sufficient space, not because you need to access the index from multiple machines, so you should be OK with changing the lock file directory to a local dir.
