If an OSS crashes, it will definitely lead to recovery timeout and =
client eviction.

If an OSS crash with a local mountpoint is causing recovery timeouts,
then that seems like a bug to be fixed.  This was changed by Alex Z.
in patch "LU-12722 target: disable recovery for local clients" back in
commit v2_13_52-45-g8bd04b4e57.

Cheers, Andreas
