Hi,
We have a problem with one of our systems which is using XFS but
we are
unable to find the problem. Recently we had two moments, Tuesday
4th of
March and Friday the 21st of March, where we had to reboot the
system to
get it up and running again.
What happens:
- The programs handling files on the XFS disc stop working when
creating, deleting or writing files. They do not error they are
just
waiting on the command to complete.
- One of our programs, a java application, goes into very high
cpu usage
(50%) which normally is at 1%. This could be something in our
java
application but it happens at the moment handling files gets
stuck.
- A nice restart of the programs does not succeed as wel a kill
-9 does
not work.
- Trying to reboot the servers in a normal fashion does not
work. As it
is a virtual machine we have to do a shutdown (unplug power) and
start
it up again to get it up and running.
Following details I have for you:
System OS: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Kernel: 3.2.0-37-generic #58-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 24 15:28:10 UTC
2013
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Server: Virtual machine in a VMWare setup.
Disc: 300GB direct attached LUN
We have an exact clone of this system for our acceptance
environment. In
this environment we are unable to reproduce this
problem/situation.
Differences between the two days is that our services on
2014-03-21 were
quit busy with a lot of file changes on the xfs disc and on
2014-03-04
the system was very quiet on the moment the kernel traces appear
and the
services get stuck.
Any help is appreciated.
Regards Michel Verbraak.
Could you set up kdump and take a core dump next time it hangs?
There is a couple suspicious items in the syslog entries
--Mark.
