It seems that you have snapshotted fs exported by nfsd ? At least,
18a is
definitely the case. I have the patch (for current) that shall fix
the issue.
In fact, you need two patches:
As per advice of Kris Kenneway, I turned off the software watchdog to
rule out that as my problem. Then I ran a level 3 dump. Dump of root
fs went fine, then it proceeded to do /usr. After a few minutes it
locked up. Typescript 20 at the above URL shows the debugging info
from the break into debugger of the locked up system. Since /usr was
locked, nobody could log in at all.
The network load was minimal at the time. I had everyone log out and
close mail etc.
