Hi there, I'm seeing CIFS errors in my system log:
Oct 17 21:48:21 Server1 kernel: [201068.584384] CIFS VFS: Send error in Flush = -9 Oct 17 21:48:22 Server1 kernel: [201070.351555] CIFS VFS: Send error in Flush = -9 Oct 17 21:48:22 Server1 kernel: [201070.352653] CIFS VFS: Send error in Flush = -9 There's a block of 17 of those, all taking place within a few seconds. This has happened a few times in the past several days. The client machine is Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, the cifs-utils version is 2:5.1-1ubuntu2, and the cifs.ko version is 1.78. The server is Windows Home Server 2011; both of these systems are virtualized in the same physical box. The Windows event log doesn't show anything happening during this time period. I see that this was mentioned back in February (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cifs/7844). Did anything ever come of this? Is it perhaps fixed in a more recent version? This is particularly bad for me, because this SMB share is used to store backups, and when the CIFS VFS error occurs it corrupts the backup archive. My Linux skills aren't very strong, but I'm happy to do what I can to provide more or better info.
