In the last episode (Dec 05), Ian said:
I'm trying to get some opensuse 10.3 clients to access nfs shares on
a FreeBSD 5.5 server. It works fine most of the time, but every so
often when using big programs like openoffice firefox, the program
will stop responding for a couple of minutes.
After doing some googling, I enabled lockd statd enabled on the
FBSD server - before I did that, those apps wouldn't even start
without massive delays. I still get these occasional lockup while
using the apps however. Interestingly, other apps seem to be able to
access the nfs shares even while the 'big' apps have stopped
responding.
Just wondering if anyone has any idea how to fix or even troubleshoot
this problem?
strace the hanging linux process to see if it always happens on a
particular file or syscall, and run tcpdump/wireshark to see what NFS
requests are being done. Also check dmesg or /var/log/messages on the
client to see if it's reporting something there.
