Question .nfsxxxxx files

[lema]

Server operating system version

Debian 11.11

Plesk version and microupdate number

18.0.66 Update #2

Hello!
We are using an NFS mounted disk for storing the vhost files, according to this Plesk article.

Although everything seems to function correctly, a user received the following error message:

Publication failed. Please try again
filemng failed: rm: cannot remove '/var/www/vhosts/mydomain.tld/httpdocs/css/.nfs0000000000010d7600000ee7': Device or resource busy.
filemng: Error occurred during /bin/rm command.

The .nfs0000000000010d7600000ee7 file appears to be held open by the Nginx service, which releases the file after restarting the service.
I assume the creation of .nfsxxxxx files is normal behavior with NFS, but is there a way to perform regular cleanup of such files?

In the case of .nfs0000000000010d7600000ee7, the file remained locked for 2-3 days until the Nginx service was restarted.

Thank you in advance for your help!

The issue occurs on both of our Plesk servers.
I have tried every possible option in the NFS mount settings, but I haven't been able to resolve it.

The .nfs000000 files are kept open by Nginx, and when running the following commands,
I can see that nginx: worker process is shutting down

In panel.ini I have the:
[webserver]
syncModeOnRemoveConfiguration = true

and the /etc/fstab entry is:
192.168.1.10:/plesk-vhosts /var/www/vhosts nfs hard,timeo=150,retrans=2,_netdev 0 0

Any idea ??

#lsof .nfs000000000001d29900000001

Hello @Sebahat.hadzhi
I will open the report, Now I see that the site was built using Sitejet Builder.
The user reports that the issue occurs (sometimes) during publishing.
The server hosts 50 domains without similar issues, all of which are dynamic PHP sites.
