Re: [cifs-discuss] smbd becomes unresponsive on snv_151a

2011-02-11 Thread Afshin Salek

I took a closer look at the code and unfortunately disabling
printing is not going to help the situation. The thread this
is not launched is not the one that's causing smbd to hang.

Hi!

Getting coredump might be troublesome as it will be really huge (~33G). Will try to set print_enable' to 
false explicitly - currently it was not set in SMF and sharectl already reported it as 
false (I assume false is default). We were also thinking if there is a chance that a 
nightly smb/server restart would work as a temporary work-around?

Thanks!

There is a good chance that you're running into this problem:

6996574 smbd intermittently hangs

This was fixed in snv_156.

Hi!

We have some trouble with CIFS. Two servers (n20 and n30), both configured the same way and 
running Solaris 11 Express snv_151a. From time to time CIFS service on n20 locks up, becomes 
unresponsive and impossible to restart, even kill -9pid_of_smbd can't kill 
it. Only system reboot helps to solve the problem.

Servers had deduplication turned on ZFS datasets for some time and on n20 it 
was only recently turned off and still contains deduped data. Servers 
periodically create and rotate ZFS snapshots on shared filesystems. We cant get 
any definite evidence on what is causing the trouble. Can somebody advise on 
how to debug this? We can provide more information if necessary or even 
organize remote access if there is interest in it.

Thanks!

Any workarounds for this?  Will this be fixed in the support repo?

Actually you can try this as a workaround:

# svccfg -s smb/server setprop smbd/print_enable=boolean: false
# svcadm restart smb/server

This will disable printing and prevents the bogus thread from
being launched.

I don't believe there is a workaround.

I don't know about the support model for this Solaris release.

2011-02-10 Thread Afshin Salek

Even if the binaries were available for download you would run
binaries of SMB from 156 on 151a at your own risk. Such a
mix and match is not supported.

Having said that, I don't think newer binaries are available
for public download.

If you have support contract for your Solaris Express you can
alway take that route to get an update.

The developers might be interested in.

P.S. I know the rules of the company I cannot speak of.

It's better to have something working and not supported then the other way 
around so it's worth a shot until final version from Solaris becomes available 
I assume. 

Also -- I think there is a win for Oracle developers as well; they know it's 
the fixed bug and not the a new one?
