Your bug 235043 does sound rather different since it sounds like new processes would be able to access the file system without a problem, where as on my system any new attempt to read (writing wasn't tested) just resulted in one more process stuck in the "D" state. I might try taking a byte-for-byte copy of the FS and see if I can find a way to reliably re-produce the problem on a similar server. -- Regards, Robert Davidson. Obsidian Consulting Group.
