NFS lockd issue 11iv3 & redhat linux AS

[Dave Olker]

Try this on the 11.31 system:

# /sbin/init.d/lockmgr stop
# /sbin/init.d/lockmgr start

Then re-try the rpcinfo command and see if you get the appropriate output.

Hello Dave;

Ok got the following:

# rpcinfo -t localhost 100021
program 100021 version 1 ready and waiting
program 100021 version 2 ready and waiting
program 100021 version 3 ready and waiting
program 100021 version 4 ready and waiting

Interesting, all of rx6600 servers have the same problem, looks like the administrator (me) is doing something consistantly wrong, how shocking.

So should I try the application now?

Any thoughts as to why lockd is not starting up? Guess the problem is in /etc/rc.config.d

Thank you for your help

No, the problem isn't in the config file. The only parameter in the config file is LOCKMGR=1 and you already confirmed that.

Problem sounds like rpc.lockd stops responding to requests after running awhile. No idea why that's happening. That would require a separate action plan to figure out.

What version of ONCplus are you running on your 11.31 systems?

# swlist ONCplus

# ONCplus B.11.31.09.01 ONC+ 2.3
ONCplus.NFS B.11.31.09.01 ONC/NFS; Network-File System,Information Services

Ok, so you're on the latest stuff. I was gonna suggest updating to the latest stuff to see if you're hitting a known/fixed problem.

Does the application work now?

Is there anything I should do before testing the application again?

[Dave Olker]

No, please try the application

It works! yes indeed. It would be sure nice know why the lockmgr had stopped on all of our servers.


Thank you for your help!

Hi Dave;

How should I go about finding out why lockmgr is not starting. It seems to be a problem on many of our hpux 11iv3 servers. Should we start a case or ?
