Here in thundery south Florida we just had a power flicker that took
down some servers, but not others.
My 2100 server has some NFS mounted disks on another host. The other host
went down, the 2100 did not.
I suspected the routers had rebooted so I tried to ping outside the
company, and got an error, then I tried pinging my X-tube which I know
is up, beacuse I'm using it, and got the same error:
> ns.encore.com> ping 206.156.225.36
NFS2 getattr failed for server rt91 : RPC: Timed out
rt91 is the host with the NFS drives.
My question is: Why should ping care about NFS mounted drives? It makes
me wonder if I have something misconfigured in network land.
Any thoughts appreciated. Consider this more curiosity than urgent.
We're back and running now.
