Subject: NFS server stalls with 2.4.18 + XFS 1.1
Date: Thu, 04 Jul 2002 17:16:06 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ag1sg0$348$2@main.gmane.org> (raw)
We have noticed a problem with a couple of our NFS servers (running
RedHat 7.2 with a stock 2.4.18 kernel with XFS v1.1) whereby NFS access
slows to a crawl or stalls.
The exported filesystem(s) are XFS with 8 nfsd's running - when we have
the problem the load average is about 8 - but CPU usage, disk access and
network traffic are minimal.
I found, by accident, that running the command 'sync' appears to 'fix'
the situation...
I'm not sure if this is an XFS or NFS related problem (hence posting to
both lists).
Thanks
James Pearson
