Hi, This morning when I rebooted one node out of the 3 nodes cluster, it came back normally but saw repeated INFO of GFS : -- INFO: task gfs2_quotad:7957 blocked for more than 120 seconds. "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message. gfs2_quotad D ffff8800ea0cfd30 0 7957 67 7965 7956 (L-TLB) ffff8800ea0cfcd0 0000000000000246 0000000000000000 ffff8800f996d800 000000000000000a ffff8800fb3a70c0 ffff8800ffceb7e0 000000000000a429 ffff8800fb3a72a8 0000000000000000 Call Trace: [<ffffffff8886d7b8>] :dlm:dlm_put_lockspace+0x10/0x1f [<ffffffff8886be5f>] :dlm:dlm_lock+0x117/0x129 [<ffffffff88910556>] :lock_dlm:gdlm_ast+0x0/0x311 [<ffffffff889102c1>] :lock_dlm:gdlm_bast+0x0/0x8d [<ffffffff88894e8f>] :gfs2:just_schedule+0x0/0xe [<ffffffff88894e98>] :gfs2:just_schedule+0x9/0xe [<ffffffff80263825>] __wait_on_bit+0x40/0x6e [<ffffffff88894e8f>] :gfs2:just_schedule+0x0/0xe [<ffffffff802638bf>] out_of_line_wait_on_bit+0x6c/0x78 [<ffffffff8029c45e>] wake_bit_function+0x0/0x23 [<ffffffff88894e8a>] :gfs2:gfs2_glock_wait+0x2b/0x30 [<ffffffff888ab456>] :gfs2:gfs2_statfs_sync+0x3f/0x165 [<ffffffff888ab44e>] :gfs2:gfs2_statfs_sync+0x37/0x165 [<ffffffff8025dd7c>] del_timer_sync+0xc/0x16 [<ffffffff888a5277>] :gfs2:quotad_check_timeo+0x20/0x60 [<ffffffff888a6d46>] :gfs2:gfs2_quotad+0xde/0x214 [<ffffffff8029c430>] autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x2e [<ffffffff888a6c68>] :gfs2:gfs2_quotad+0x0/0x214 [<ffffffff8029c218>] keventd_create_kthread+0x0/0xc4 [<ffffffff80233be4>] kthread+0xfe/0x132 [<ffffffff80260b2c>] child_rip+0xa/0x12 [<ffffffff8029c218>] keventd_create_kthread+0x0/0xc4 [<ffffffff80233ae6>] kthread+0x0/0x132 [<ffffffff80260b22>] child_rip+0x0/0x12 -- clustat was not listing the services too saying Service temoprarily unavailible. try again later... Then I ran gfs2_list df. It printed out few lines then it stopped. I could't do 'ls; on mounted GFS file-systems on all three nodes. Then I rebooted this node once again. After that everything is normal. Just wanted to know what might has caused the problem. messaged logs says: Dec 22 10:53:57 cvprd2 fenced[7379]: fence "xxxx.xxx.xxx" success Dec 22 10:53:57 cvprd2 kernel: GFS2: fsid=vprd:guest_vms1.1: jid=2: Trying to acquire journal lock...
