I woke up to a frozen box this morning - it froze up a few more times before I got a handle on it. Basically, the box runs idle but refuses to do disk IO, or does it -very- slowly. Top shows processes stuck in 'ffsvget', 'inode', and 'vlruwk' state. I can get the box responsive again by setting sysctl kern.maxvnods=100000. It starts up with kern.maxnodes=36079. I

We have a reproducible problem with FreeBSD-4.7 which is apparently a deadlock. The system is undergoing a filesystem stress test. The machine is pingable, but console and most other features are unresponsive. The console debugger can be accessed. The following information is available with db's "ps". I suspect the wchan of "inode" to be what everything is waiting on.

Andre, Are you going to have time to MFC things from -current for auto-tuning -stable before 9.2? I fear (maybe unnecessarily?) that we are about to ship yet another release that can't do basic 10gigE when sufficient memory exists. If you don't have time, then let me know and I'll see what I can do. -- Alfred Perlstein VP Software Engineering, iXsystems

Hello, freebsd-stable. Does somebody use some software RAID5 on FreeBSD in real production system? I want to build storage server for my home: RAW photos, multi-layer PhotoShop files and FLAC-encoded music consume a lot of space, and they should be availible both from desktop & notebook. Also, all photo-content is unique, so I need some insuranse from single HDD crash. I understand,

Thomas, Have spoken to Soren, from my bootlog he believes that the problem is in atapicam causing the system to lock up. He is happy to answer some questions but doesnt have time to delve into atapicam himself. Did you author atapicam, I have seen your name on the sourcecode, can you help me further? Whats next? Thanks Adam. -------------- next part -------------- An embedded message was
