Trace: ftp://ftp.kw.bbc.co.uk/davidf/priv/saesheil.pcap Unfortunately, this is resulting in about 40 nodes doing their best to kill the poor solaris server. Generating a combined total of 250Mbit/sec towards the NFS server (collecting a little under 200Mbit/sec of replies). Have we not heard of exponential backoff? This seems to require major attention, given that this amounted to a site wide DoS: going round all the machines and killing the processes that were having major problems brought the situation back under control. Frankly i'd rather that you panicked the kernel than this.
