I guess my wording was a little confusing. What I meant by nfs mounts in the ngz from the gz is that since you can't log into the zone you need to check for hung nfs mounts from the global zone. The nfs mounts that we have had hung were from filers. Derek On Sun, Jun 21, 2009 at 3:05 PM, Craig

The zone is in a shutting_down state. The mdb command for this zone returns 0x1a, greater then 1. zone_name = 0xfe86c83d61c0 zonetest-new zone_ref = 0x1a This is new to me, what is the refcount counting? What should this value be for the zone to shutdown? There is a zoneadmd processes

I already tried killing the zoneadmd process and issuing the halt and all it does is start back up the zoneadmd process and hang.* I can't force a crashdump on the system since I can't take the box down. Bug 6272846 makes reference to nfs version 3, (which is the version we are

Related comments from bug below (X'ed out some paths): The zone in question clearly has too many references 030004a09680::print zone_t zone_ref zone_ref = 0t11 Ten too many, to be precise. So what's holding onto the zone? Well the rnode cache has 5 entries ::kmem_cache ! grep rnode

Just follow up on the progress and resolution to my stuck zones problem. I had two zones stuck in the shutting_down state. Based on initial feedback I looked for nfs mounts in /etc/mnttab in the gz that were mounted in the ngz. There were a couple and umount'ed them. Then I was able to find two

It's possible that it could be nfs mount related since the zone did have nfs mounted fs's but they should have been umounted prior to shutting down the zone. In any event I can no longer get into the zone to checkusing zlogin and zlogin -C. I tried Bryan's suggestion on looking for processes

If its hung nfs mount you should be able to see it still mounted in the /etc/mntab file in the global zone: grep nfs /etc/mntab. It will be mounted under the zonepath. You should then be able to do a umount -f /path-to-nfsmnt from the global zone and if you're really lucky the zone will finish

There were a bunch of nfs mounts listed in the /etc/mntab of the global zone. I was able to umount them but zone is still hung up. I tried killing the zoneadmd process and ran zoneadm halt again and it started the zoneadmd back up but it didn't do anything. Thanks to everyone for their
