Re: Stale NFS mount point hanging bdf command
Hi John,
As for your specific problem of bdf stops responding, have you checked the recent ONC patches for possible fixes to this problem? A quick check of the patch catalog showed this hit in PHNE_31097:
( SR:8606364383 CR:JAGaf25022 )
If an NFS server is not available, processes accessing NFS filesystems stops responding and cannot be killed.
The problem reported by the customer for this defect was "I do a bdf when the server is down and the bdf command stops responding. This causes other applications to stops responding." Sound familiar? The solution was to change how the NFS client handles locking data structures and sleeping at non-interruptible levels in the kernel.
However, even if you install the very latest ONC patch for 11.11 (PHNE_33315) you would see the same behavior. That's because the fix for this defect is disabled by default. The fix involved us creating a new adb kernel tunable parameter that changes this behavior and makes these non-interruptible (i.e. hung) processes interruptible (i.e. killable) again. The parameter name is "nfs_new_rnode_lock_code".
I'm not trying to suggest that this is the underlying cause of your problem, but you may want to investigate JAGaf25022 to see if it matches your situation.
Regards,
Dave

Re: Stale NFS mount point hanging bdf command
in case bdf got stuck , mijority of cases its because of NFS shares which are having issues .
you can use bdf -l to see all local file systems & if bdf executed wuthout issue but bsf still hanging , its NFS shares issue for sure
to see & clear nfs shares ,
run mount -p (to share all file systems)
umount -f <nfs share> (to forvefully umount nfs file system & clear bdf hanging issue)
