My NFS server is up and other clients can access x. One particular client can't. I tried to unmount the NFS share: [root at nfsclient ~]# umount -f /disk/x umount2: Device or resource busy umount.nfs: /disk/x: device is busy umount2: Device or resource busy umount.nfs: /disk/x: device is busy If I use df or lsof to try to figure out what process to kill, they hang. I am reluctant to just reboot, as many other users are getting stuff done. dmesg doesn't show anything useful. How to get unstuck? thanks, Dave

[CentOS] nfs stuck, don't know what processes to kill
Try "umount -fl" ('eff el')

Is that the case? IF that is the case... is autofs running? If so, service autofs stop, and you should be able to umount it. mark

Thanks. How did I miss that -l switch? Unfortunately, I went into panic mode and just rebooted, but I'll know next time.
