I can reproduce the problem on my platform: a RHEL 7 client
(3.10.0-327.10.1.el7.x86_64 kernel), with a NetApp server running a fairly old
release. The last time I asked (in 2010), they were running netapp-6.5.6 on the
file server.
As far as I know, only NetApp has the inode-number bug. It's had the bug for
many years, and I'm a bit surprised to see that they fixed it in a recent
release.
