We have a Sun Fire X4500 (Thumper) with 48 750GB SATA drives being used as an NFS server. My original plan was to reinstall Linux on it but after getting it and playing around with zfs I decided to give Solaris a try.
I have created over 30 zfs filesystems so far and exported them via NFS and this has been working fine. Well, almost. A couple of weeks ago I discovered clients could no longer mount and I logged into the Thumper and found mountd was not running. I could not figure out how to properly get it restarted (nothing I did with svcadm seeemed to work) so I just rebooted and then everything was fine again. Nothing in the logs seemed to give any indication of what the problem was (the logs are awful sparse on Solaris). Anyway, today I log into to make a new zfs filesystem and the zfs create command has just hung and is unkillable even via kill -9. I ran: zfs create -o quota=131G -o reserv=131G -o recsize=8K zpool1/itgroup_001 and this is still running now. truss on the process shows nothing. I don't know how to debug it beyond that. I thought I would ask for any info from this list before I just reboot. # uname -a SunOS raidsrv03 5.10 Generic_127112-05 i86pc i386 i86pc And 'hd -c' shows all the disks as operating normally. THere is nothing relevant I can find in dmesg or /var/adm/messages or /var/log/syslog. -- --------------------------------------------------------------- Paul Raines email: raines at nmr.mgh.harvard.edu MGH/MIT/HMS Athinoula A.
