I'd like to request more information: - What's the server OS and version? - What version of NFS? (nfsstat -m) - How does the SSH client hang? (pstack <pid>) - How do you recover from this? Reboot, umount -f, other? - Do you have or can you get a crash dump of the system in this state? - If you can't get a crash dump, I'd take a thread list: # echo '$<threadlist' | mdb -k > threads - If you're running NFSv4, this would also help: # echo '::nfs4_diag' | mdb -k > nfs4_diag Thanks, Rob T
