    first let us understand the issue:
    A filehandle becomes stale whenever the file or directory referenced by the handle is removed by another host, while your client still holds an active reference to the object. A typical example occurs when the current directory of a process, running on your client, is removed on the server (either by a process running on the server or on another client).

    How to fix it?
    umount -f /mnt/local
    # mount -t nfs nfsserver:/path/to/share /mnt/local
