It seems the nfsserve resource agent isn't compatible with
RHEL/CentOS-7. These systems always mount /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs on
boot but the resource agent script actually checks if "/var/lib/nfs" is
present in /proc/mounts and if that is the case then it will refuse to
start the nfs server thus preventing the fail-over.
I honestly have no good idea how to solve this as the mounting of
/var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs is basically hard-coded into the RHEL/CentOS
service files.
