--nextPart5025908.jDMHbE7WI8 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I've been involved with a project at work doing some fun things with NFS. = =20 Recently due to changes in a available hardware we did a complete refresh o= f=20 the system. New HBAs, new storage boxes, and due to some internal software= =20 confusion we updated the OS on the head from 8.1-R with zpool 15 backported= to=20 STABLE. Our primary client that we were using against this setup was a ESXi 4.1=20 machine. In a nutshell, it didn't work. Long description is, ZFS would=20 deadlock and any operation on the pool would hang. The ESXi instance would= =20 mark the NFS mount as unavailable. I initially thought this could be due t= o=20 any number of factors, we have new HBAs in the mix, new storage boxes, a n= ew=20 version of zpool, and one test case. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, I have a somewhat similar setup at home. =20 =46reeBSD 8.1 NFS server, ESXi 4.1 box mounting an NFS exported ZFS filesys= tem=20 from the FreeBSD box as a datastore. Last night I pulled that box up to STABLE, rebooted it, and a minute after = it=20 rebooted the ESXi box marked the NFS datastore as unavailable. I checked t= he=20 =46reeBSD machine and sure enough it hung doing an ls on the zpool. I ran a few tests, and as soon as the ESXi box mounts the NFS export it han= gs=20 the ZFS filesystem. If I don't mount it up, the NFS server does fine. =20 Thinking it might be a ZFS problem I moved the mount to a UFS filesystem. = =20 While this doesn't cause the box to hang on filesystem operations, the moun= t=20 goes unavailable. The only other client I have on my network is a FreeBSD 8.1 box, and that h= as=20 no issues =20 All of this is with the standard NFS server, I haven't yet tested with the= =20 experimental server. =2D-=20 Thanks, Josh Paetzel --nextPart5025908.jDMHbE7WI8 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.15 (FreeBSD) iQEcBAABAgAGBQJM69DWAAoJEKFq1/n1feG2pssH/3OfYxNZrbZ6vtxfksBIcvr9 olLmuxJ+2EkG+5aUu5UM9IDzLQ8qlMjEgIEHlvw8pNWgwyKhIu7VVscDFcnLAT5q xx9D751p/GyK+JxE/XNv8emK6I6WJ+zGyoTTscn5eP2iVSbxnJEVuxrpzbRtdBQQ EeF6mL/brHSiGCDim0lU/wxOzeisf2Gf6lPYWVM1L2+b4hIOizfuBOw0ITXZLeUp maNHsRqHmqSWq9DblJNzf/iEc0wnjYUbRfM1nPS7Frv4YYBaKikZMqfpJa2uEm1u Luj8WJvozSLhJKXhJ89/PAA6VDEHvn2oRY1SvSaXUJSIk7K7HsysCepeH4tbzEU= =DppL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart5025908.jDMHbE7WI8--
