-------- Hallo, I'm a FreeBSD user for years with machines in production since V2.X. At the moment I have a really strange problem in our environment. - NetApp Cluster NFS file server - HPUX-11, Solaris-8, FreeBSD-4.11 Clients - 60000 Virus/Spam scans a day, spread over 5 different FreeBSD Machine= s, two different hardware bases, 1GBit Network A problem occurs with the Sophos PMX (PureMessage Anti-Spam/Anti-Virus) Application. 1-3 times a day the following happens: - pmx_log:3 2005-06-23T12:26:58 [36968,milter] pmx_file(): = Can't append message info to '/usr/local/pmx4/var/qdir/tmp/1119522418= -36968:135299072-ZN0IIE00EX1IKSAE.00-738-vscan1.hrz.uni-bielefeld.de': Ba= d file descriptor at /usr/local/pmx4/lib/site_perl/5.6.1/PureMessage/Mess= ageFile.pm line 124. - /usr/local/pmx4/var is located on the NetApp Filer (NFSv3) - Line 124 referenced above looks like (close($f)): sub make { my $class =3D shift; my $fname =3D shift; my $minfo =3D @_ =3D=3D 1 ? shift : do { require PureMessage::MessageInfo; PureMessage::MessageInfo->new(@_); }; open(my $f, ">>", $fname) || die "Can't append to '$fname': $!\n"; print $f _minfo_block($minfo); close($f) || die "Can't append message info to '$fname': $!"; 1; } - BUT: The message-info is absolutely correct appended! This does not occur if I move /usr/local/pmx4/var on a local disk. No errors in any logfile! No problems with other Servers! Any ideas? Is there a kernel NFS or interoperability problem with the = NetApp Filer. How can I debug this on FreeBSD?
