>Description:
# /etc/rc.d/nfslocking restart
Stopping statd.
Starting statd.

As you can see, restarting nfslocking does only restarts statd when it should restart lockd as well.

This can unexpectedly stop the NFS file locking daemon from working when NFS clients try to use it. This is clearly evident from the output of "rpcbind -p" which doesn't show nlockmgr listed after the restart is complete.
>How-To-Repeat:
# /etc/rc.d/nfslocking restart
>Fix:
Workaround for the moment:
# /etc/rc.d/nfslocking stop
Stopping statd.
Stopping lockd.
# /etc/rc.d/nfslocking start
Starting statd.
Starting lockd.
