Hello,
We have a bunch of linux-systems, which get some mounts from two netapp-filers FAS3020. both filers run under ontap 7.0.3 filer1 has SCSI disks filer2 has SATA disks
from time to time some systems (nfs-clients) hang: *) our redhat enterprise linux 3 and 4 systems never hang :) *) 2 systems running fedora 5 hang sometimes. they mount only filer1 *) a third system (fedora 5) uses filer1 and filer2 and sometimes the mount to filer2 hangs. the mount to filer1 never hangs. those mounts get exported via samba. i testwise installed the el4 kernel on fedora, but that did not solve the problem. the local logs on the clients leave no hints.
the systems never hang all at the same time and get solved by rebooting the clients, therefore i dont think its a problem with the filers. the fixes for nfs in 7.0.4 dont seem to solve our problems.
mount options: 172.16.11.7:/vol/vol0/home/software on /home/software type nfs (rw,hard,nfsvers=3,addr=172.16.11.7) 172.16.11.9:/vol/medispace on /mnt/filer2 type nfs (rw,hard,nfsvers=3,addr=172.16.11.9)
is there something i could do to debug that?
