TruCluster 5.1A (freshly upgraded from 5.1 3th patch) is made of two
member (an ES40 and a AS4100) and it worked properly until the upgrade
process (which has been succesful and without any problem).
Dear TruFriends,
Thanks to the many suggestions coming from the list,
I now know that the problem arises from AUTOFS
Infact as autofsd starts it tries to mount ALL and EACH of the files
listed in /etc/auto.direct
Apart that it is not the supposed behavour, the problem arises when any of
the serving machine are down (as in my case of course!) and df returns its
info with a very long delay (while mount without arguments replies soon).
Here my /etc/auto.master
/- /etc/auto.direct -rw,intr,soft,bg
and here my /etc/auto.direct
/tmp_mnt/MS -rw,intr,soft masaccio:/MS_a/users
/tmp_mnt/CV -rw,intr,soft caravaggio:/CV_a/users
The situation is as follows:
/usr/bin/df given without arguments or with a domain#fset
still works badly (hangs and wait for a very long time). It happens
reguardles the value of the CMD_ENV environment variable.
df DOES'NT WORK
df marte#f1 DOES'NT WORK
df /dev/disk/cdrom3c DOES'NT WORK
The surprising thing is that giving df any fstype or file system let df
work properly!
df /var WORKS
df -t nfs WORKS
df -t advfs WORKS
df -t cdrom WORKS
df -t procfs WORKS
df -n WORKS
I noticed the malfunction before the "clu_upgrade clean"
and I cheched that even the old /usr/bin/.Old..df worked badly on the
upgarded system.
The whole cluster is working properly without any other (up to now
noticed!) problem.
Not even to say I can't open a software call since it is more than 3
months I bought the systems!
Thank you again from Italy,
Emanuele
