Hello
May be that I have a jfs or kernel problem:
I oserve the following behavior.
Systemload grows very fast and a few seconds later the system doesn't
react any longer.
The server is a big Samba Server with 900 GByte jfs filesystem
configured on a raid 5 disk.
So I have some trouble with my users.
See the enries in the /var/log/messages.
The kernel version:
frasdat39:/tmp # uname -a
Linux frasdat39 2.4.9 #9 SMP Sat Oct 20 19:46:20 CEST 2001 i686 unknown
JFS Version 1.0.3
I tested it with jfs.1.0.7 too.
In heavy load situations jfscommit mutate to a Zombie prozess. Because
this is a child of init, you can only power down the system.
I am using a Software raid5 with 6 178GByte Disks
frasdat39:/service/disk2/spethus # df
