Hi, The "sync" command (binary) was invoked by my backup script, and stalled in a similar way to my coreutils bug report 675613. Attempting to run the "sync" binary manually, after the "sync" started by the backup strip stalled resulted in two stalled "sync" processes: > root 19701 0.0 0.0 6116 848 ?
