-In NFS, if a subdirectory of a filesystem is exported, but the whole filesystem isn't, then whenever a NFS request arrives, the server must check that the accessed file is in the appropriate filesystem (easy) and that it is in the exported tree (harder). This check is called the subtree_check.+In NFS, if a filesystem subdirectory is exported, but not the whole filesystem, then whenever a NFS request arrives, the server must check the accessed file is in the appropriate filesystem (easy) and that it is in the exported tree (harder). This check is called the subtree_check.
  
-To perform this check, the server must include information about the location of the file in the file handle given to the client. This can cause problems with accessing files that are renamed while a client has them open. However, in many simple cases, it will still work.+To perform the check, the server must include details of the file location in the file handle given to the client.
