Hello,
Much like the issues Chris had I
have run into the same. I am using fc3 all the latest packages updated
through yum. My kernel was prepared the same way as Steve
suggested:
"I started with the linux-2.6.11 tarball then
applied the patch-2.6.12-rc3.bz2 patch and the 2.6.12-rc3-mm3.bz
patch"
The util-linux patches were then forced from http://people.redhat.com/steved/cachefs/util-linux/.
I have setup the cache block device, initialized it, all that goes well until
NFS hits the equation. As soon as I try to mount
NFS with the fsc option it just hangs there, cant kill the process, cant reboot
the machine, same issues. Has there been any progress towards a
solution? Can we expect this to be fixed in the new version David announced
a few days ago?
I tried to load this on another system, Core
2, a few weeks back and was able to mount the nfs with the fsc option. As
soon as I initiated any type of traffic to the mount (10megs of web traffic
from the frontend, CachFS machine, to the backend via NFS mounted with
fsc) the system load shot up to the 100's and the machine came crashing
down.
