I've switched up my setup now, thinking this would "mature" it more.
Everything is gigabit ethernet.
Server:
FreeBSD 7.0, quad-core xeon 3220, 2GB RAM, 4x750 hardware RAID10
Adaptec 3405 (so ~ 1.5TB usable)
42 processes: 1 running, 41 sleeping
CPU states: 0.0% user, 0.0% nice, 0.5% system, 0.0% interrupt, 99.5% idle
Mem: 15M Active, 1581M Inact, 325M Wired, 48M Cache, 214M Buf, 9232K Free
Swap: 2048M Total, 20K Used, 2048M Free
/etc/rc.conf:
nfs_server_flags="-u -t -n 16"
/etc/exports:
/home -maproot=root -network 10.13.5.0 -mask 255.255.255.0
Clients (3 moderate usage, 2 minimal usage):
Linux 2.6.24-16-server, quad-core xeon 3220, 4GB RAM, single SATA2
250G disk (barely used)
/etc/fstab:
raid01:/home /home nfs
rsize=8192,rsize=8192,tcp,rw,acregmin=30
I stuck with the 8k since it seems like FreeBSD (from what I read)
recommended it. It seems damn near rock solid but one machine
consistently flakes out (and is identical in every way - hardware,
fstab, nfs-common parameters, etc) to two other nodes that don't show
any issues (and I think are stable, for the most part...)
I get those nasty:
[26792.279141] nfs: server raid01 not responding, still trying
[26792.279172] nfs: server raid01 not responding, still trying
[26792.279201] nfs: server raid01 not responding, still trying

[27151.797287] nfs: server raid01 OK
[27151.797382] nfs: server raid01 OK
[27151.798190] nfs: server raid01 OK
[27151.798237] nfs: server raid01 OK
[27151.798282] nfs: server raid01 OK
[27151.798484] nfs: server raid01 OK
But it takes a while for it to recover, meanwhile the client is useless...
Any thoughts?
