Tigran, was there an actual panic or just this string of WARNINGs?
Were there any ill effects for this warning?
The reason I'm asking is that according to our latest analysis of the
code the warning might be a red herring and it can happen in valid scenarios
so we intend to remove it altogether in the revised pnfs-submit series.

Thanks for reporting in any case!

Benny

Hi Benny,

I was listening my mp3 music over pnfs. at some point my machine crashed
( I restarted pnfs data server). The kernel stack traces where the last
entries in the
message file. Up to now I have seen only few kernel panics. We transfer
couple of TB and run more than 150 concurrent applications. Usually
in case of problems clients becomes inaccessible, but I am able to
reboot them. This time my desktop simply hangs and I have to power cycle it.

Regards,
Tigran.
