Hi!
Here is the problem. When I try to read and write at the same time (it
shows up when trying to create a tar file)
on an automounted directory the process starts up fine, but pretty
quickly slows down and eventually
stalls completely. The process is then frozen but reacts to a kill
signal after a few minutes.
At the same time I have seen kernel messages such as
Jun 25 17:37:05 vangogh kernel: nfs: task 39046 can't get a request slot
Jun 25 17:37:37 vangogh kernel: nfs: server bebop OK
....
Networking seems to be fine otherwise, in particular I have no problems
when I just read OR write from the same
disk (as when I would create a tar file on a local disk from the mounted
directory).
I ran into this with the RedHat 7.3 distribution kernel (2.4.18) but
also tried the very latest 2.4.19-rc1 with
Trond's latest NFS_ALL patches (for pre10).
The machine from where the disk is server is running SGI IRIX 6.5 and
nfsstat shows that I am using
NFS V3.
So far I did not change any NFS options such as buffer size yet.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I won't use autofs in RedHat 7.3 myself. It doesn't even support
autofs4.
