Re: bdf command hanging
Hello,
Based on syslog, your system has been up too long and time time to upgrade firmware
Jan 8 16:32:54 riwdmsdb vmunix: function == 0x92C520, arg == 0x42A31800, ... Jan 8 16:32:54 riwdmsdb vmunix: function == 0x92C520, arg == 0x42A31800, ticks == 0xFE59CFE4, flags == 0x0
I think that is one of causes this issue.
how about #mount -v ?
can you paste the output here
Thanks
BR
Naj

Re: bdf command hanging
your logfile is much to big
Use for example SAM to 'trim' your logfiles!
Then check for the current messages in syslog.

Re: bdf command hanging
Yeah - that logical:
Your syslog.log - file is 2147483647 Bytes, that's around 2 GB and that's the maximum file size without largefile-option in Filesystem.
So your system can't write more to the syslog.
You have to trim it or copy if needed and then zero it:
/dev/null > /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log
(or zero instead of null).
When syslog is zero again, then your system can give you syslog messages again!

Re: bdf command hanging
There can also be a file sytem completely full - maybe you check at once if you can delete something in /tmp.

Re: bdf command hanging
You have several logical volumes, so you can test /tmp (/dev/vg00/lvol6 on /tmp ) or /archive_log (/dev/vg02/lvol1 on /archive_log -> this would also be a different disk, that's even better)
>maybe you check at once if you can delete something in /tmp - this would be wrong by me - your problem would be in '/' (/dev/vg00/lvol3).
First try to copy your syslog.log (also it's already very, very old - you could zero it out at once). Then zero it out, then try bdf again and check your file system.

Re: bdf command hanging
The system would write/rename the syslog to OLDsyslog.log.

Re: bdf command hanging
As mentioned before ... get rid of the syslog
> /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log
Do not bother with copying or saving it - will you really ever try to open a 2 GB text file to search for some old messages?
If you reboot without deleting, it will copied to OLDsyslog.log which will need some time an will make the space situation more worse.
Your error message seems to be related to a bug in the U320 driver which shows up under some circumstances when the system has an uptime of more then 400 days (I guess you are running 11.23).
These Messages will end after updating the U320 driver or after a reboot (uptime < 400 days ..), the update itselfs requires a reboot anyway.
The Update can be found here: https://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=scsiU320-00
hth,
Stephan

You can use grep to remove those known errors:
grep -v "vmunix: function .* arg .* ticks .* flags" /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log > syslog.filtered
Someone else also reported the same problem today:

Re: bdf command hanging
you have a driver using a negative timeout hence the error message.
The best way to find out what is the problem is to log a call to HP support,
you can check what is the callback function with
echo 0x92c520?ia | adb -o /stand/vmunix
but this will give only indication on the potential root cause. - a streams_untimeout+0xf0 is only
showing that a a driver uses a streams_timeout() with a negative timeout.
The main known problem which gives that result is lmx:lmxpollport
1439223 The lmxpollport function times out with an incorrect timeout value on systems that have been running for more than 410 days. The issue was caused by the lbolt variable, which resets after 410 days.

Re: bdf command hanging
1. Clean up your syslog.log
2. Check new messages in syslog.log
3. Either decide to reboot your server every 400 days or update your U320 driver
4. [edit] After update your server will [edit] reboot
5. Check new messages in syslog.log

Re: bdf command hanging
you have to get rid of syslog.log first by emptying content.
Besides, your syslog.log indicates January , it stopped! not collecting any log..
also did you try this ? in case of an nfs issue ;
# bdf -l

Re: bdf command hanging
About which problem are we talking now?
Whether 'bdf' will work then, I can't say.
But it is important that syslog is working.
As long as you have enough space at your file system you should reboot.
I think you've got enough informations from us .... you have to do something.

Re: bdf command hanging

Update your HBA firmware and the reboot should solve it.
Or reboot until you have a better time to update the firmware.
