Non-default partitions and upgrades
Hello! I generally try and run things as a project recommends, but I am wondering about running different additional partitions (e.g., add /var/www) or changing partition letter (e.g., move /var to the end for convenient VPS expansion). I know it isn't the biggest thing in the world, but would this ever have an impact on running version upgrades? Thank you, Paul

OpenBSD on Dell PE R6515
Hello folks, in the past we used Dell servers like PE 1850, PE 2850, PE R730 and PE R740. We had good experiences running Openbsd on these systems. These models are all Intel based but for another project i'm considering giving AMD a chance. I'm very interested in the Dell PE R6515 with AMD EPYC 7302P 3GHz, 16C/32T CPU and with a mix of NICs (Intel XXV710 10/25 GbE SFP28, Broadcom 57416 Dual Port 10 GbE SFP+, Intel i350 Quad Port 1GbE BASE-T). The purpose is a Mix of PF firewall and bgp router. In the first stage of expansion, the system should be able to handle 10Gbits of traffic. Possibly more later. Does anyone have experience running OpenBSD on this platform? Thanks in advance for feedback, Joerg

Re: help debug NFS
Hi, James Thank you for the link. Since the problem really exists, the only option is to use a periodical querying the mount point like you recommend or like I did using while-loop. 11.04.2021 21:11, James Stark пишет: Hi Maxim, I ran into the problem with the nfs mounts on linux hanging a few months ago, when the Linux distro that I'm running (Void) on the NFS client dropped UDP NFS mounts. At the time I found this post that explains the situation: http://openbsd-archive.7691.n7.nabble.com/nfsd-hangs-Linux-tcp-clients-after-5-minutes-idle-td402844.html As a work around, I've set up a cron script that stat's the mount point every four minutes. That stops the mount from hanging. I hope that helps. James On Sun, Apr 11, 2021 at 2:04 AM Родин Максим wrote: Hello I have an NFS server on OpenBSD 6.8 stable which exports a folder with default settings. I have a linux mint client which mounts a share from this NFS server with these settings: sudo mount -o wsize=8192,rsize=8192 192.168.1.65:/big /home/user/store which gives a decent speed at about 50-60MB/s both sides which seem ok for me. The problem is: when the mount point is not used for a while (5 minutes and more) the share becomes unresponsive and the only way to unmount the share is to do sudo umount -lf /home/user/store After that I can mount the share once again. When I imitate using the share on client using while :; do ls /home/user/store/ && echo "OK" && sleep 3 ; done; the share remains responsive all the time and shows no problems. What tweaks(settings) on the client(server) am I missing in my setup to keep the mount point responsive? -- Best regards Maksim Rodin -- С уважением, Родин Максим
