FreeBSD mach1 3.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE #0: Mon May 3 21:02:13 PDT 1999 xxx@xxx:/usr/src/sys/compile/XXX i386
Pentium Pro180 [asus P6NP5] [3c905 10Mb half-duplex]
FreeBSD mach2 3.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE #0: Tue May 4 14:14:42 PDT 1999 xxxx@xxxx:/usr/src/sys/compile/XXXX i386
PII-dual 350 [asus P2B-D] [3c905B 10Mb half-duplex]
>Description:
when a large file 500MB is transfer from machine1 to machine2 while
another 500MB files is transfered from machine2 to machine1.
The nfs mounts quickly locks up.
nfsstat -w 5
running on each machine quickly drop to zero when second
file is started. To clear the problem I have rebooted one of
the machines, since commands like df lockup due to the unresponsive
file system.
>How-To-Repeat:
mach2> mount mach1:/xx1 /xx1
mach1> mount mach2:/xx2 /xx2
mach1> cp /xx1/bigfile /xx2/bigfile.copy
mach2> cp /xx2/bigfile /xx1/bigfile.copy
with in 100k nfs locks up
>Fix:
mount filesytems using nfs v2 (not great solution)
