I have a NFS client in which the df commands hangs. I have to manually kill it to get back to the prompt. The client had a nfs export mounted, but as of now the export is not available to the client, and the client is trying to access it. Is there a way to terminate the nfs mount on the client? There are no messages in the log files pointing to this. I know its a nfs problem because strace bails out when it tries to access /mnt/nfs. **command output trimmed for clarity. % strace df -h statfs64("/proc/fs/nfsd", 84, {f_type=0x6e667364, f_bsize=4096, f_blocks=0, \ f_bfree=0, f_bavail=0, f_files=0, f_ffree=0, f_fsid={0, 0}, f_namelen=255, f_frsize=4096}) = 0 statfs64("/mnt/nfs", 84, The mtab shows the export nfsclient> cat /etc/mtab nfsserver:/stor1 /mnt/nfs nfs rw,addr=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 0 0 The mount command also shows the relevant line. nfsclient> mount -l nfsserver:/stor1 on /mnt/nfs type nfs (rw,addr=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) Umount says the nfs export is busy --but there is nothing there. nfsclient> umount nfsserver:/stor1 umount: /mnt/nfs: device is busy umount: /mnt/nfs: device is busy Cannot see what processes (if any) are accessing nfsserver:/stor1 because the lsof command hangs just like df. Umount does not find anything either. nfsclient> umount /stor1 umount: /stor1: not found A cron job created a number of df processes over several days that I had to kill manually on the nfsclient. Does anyone have a tip about this? A web search did not yield much. ~af -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
