nfsd: last server has exited
nfsd: unexporting all filesystems
rpciod: active tasks at shutdown?!
RPC: failed to contact portmap (errno -5).

Unless you want to keep the selinux:
setenforce 0
edit the file /etc/sysconfig/selinux and make sure that after
SELINUX=
you have either disabled or permissive.

means i have to execute the command setenforce=0
or after changing is required to reboot. currently reboot is not possibe the how to re-read the file.

or temporary i can disable this security

Shalom,

If selinux is the cause there is no way to temporarily disable security. You must reboot to fix this.

rebooting of the server also does make any differnece. By the logs seems to be problem with SElinux. but hosts.allow portmap : ALL entry makes no difference.

please see the log files attached.

Hmm, I disagree with Steven on this one.
Executing "setenforce 0" without rebooting the system should be sufficient in this case - works for me.
