Guest on NFS shares & failures

I was wondering what will happen if you run a guest on a NFS share somewhere, and the NFS server drops away for a while, or permanently.

 

Will the guest hang, or fail immediatly?

 

Reason why I ask is that I want to set up 2 machines in a NFS/DRBD failover situation, with a third machine accessing guests on this NFS server.

 

In case of DRBD failover (if done automatically) - there will be about 15 seconds of delay before NFS resumes on the other drive.

 

If this is a total no-go, I won't even bother to set it up in the lab.

 

Thanks for any insights in this situation!
