against an affected client :
Lookup failed on vserver "vserver" volume "vol" client-ip "client ip" authentication-method "sys" protocol "nfs3" access-type "read-write": Failed to check exports for Vserver "vserver". The command returned an error when evaluating the client match "client.fqdn.com" for rule at index "index number" in export policy "export policy". Error code: 7208. The problem appears to be in the name service configuration for the client match specified in the rule. Wait for a few seconds, and then try the command again. If this error persists, contact technical support personnel for assistance.
