NFS mounts disconnected with esxcfg-nas still show up in VCenter

Hello,

I have 130~ ESX 4.0 U2 servers. I'm using VCenter 4.1.

When I delete an NFS mount using the command line "esxcfg-nas" tool the NFS mount is unmounted. I have verified this with both “esxcfg-nas –l” and via the nfs logs on the NAS.

The problem is the NFS mount still appears to be connected inside VSphere. I've tried to "rescan all datastores" but it still shows up. If I try to umount via VSphere I get an error. If I refresh the datastores under a individual ESX server the mount disappears. You would think after a period of time (a day or two) it would register that it's unmounted.

Does anyone know how to do this short of a reboot or readding the share and removing it via the GUI?

Thanks in advance.
