HI
The discussion in this
thread is about those situations where the server (machine
hosting the
storage/posix volume) hangs the backend filesystem (verified by
kernel console logs) and that in turn results in the mountpoint
hang.
That seems to be the case in Stephan's situation, yes, as we have
evidence from reiserFS. What evidence have we in the ext3 cases?
just searching on the net i found similar cases that where due
to the sata driver (altough in our case all disks ara sas), so
the problem could also be due to the disk driver or to some other
piece of the system. Having both reiserfs and ext3 have a bug that
produces this hangs is very unlikely. Maybe we could try to see
if all the ones experiencing this problem have something in common.
In our case the hanged server is:
Dell PE2900
2 x [email protected] 8Gb RAM
SAS 6/iR Integrated RAID Controller
7 x SEAGATE ST31000640SS
1 x SEAGATE ST3300656SS
Debian testing
Kernel 2.6.26-2
server hanged when writing to a unified volume (7 x 1Tb +
namespace and system on the ST3300656SS)
