Subject:   Dump hanging on disk wait
Message-ID:  <20010109183915.A62156@dalom.internal>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I have a machine which is doing some file shareing and amanda backup server
for a few hosts, its running...

root@asaheim (~) # uname -a
FreeBSD asaheim.internal 4.1.1-STABLE FreeBSD 4.1.1-STABLE #0: Fri Oct 27
17:45:06 IST 2000     root@asaheim.internal:/usr/src/sys/compile/ASAHEIM  i386

However, periodicly dump hangs on a disk wait (state 'D' under ps) and not
always on the same partition or disk. Its not a tape problem as its dumping
to STDOUT and being piped to amandad.
Another strange thing is when I try to cat /dev/da0s1a or another partition on
the disk I get an EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) error.

Has anyone come across this sort of thing before, or could you direct me
how I might identify what is causing this.

Thank you kindly.
