I have a server, FreeBSD 4.6.2, with 3 fxp network interfaces, polling enabled, kern.polling.user_frac is 50, and kernel compiled with Hz = 1000. It became inaccessable over the network and when I logged in over the console the following message(s) were written to it... : poll [14322] stalled in phase 2 poll [14323] stalled in phase 2 : etc.. What causes this? Is it a bug or an indication for tuning? The only tunables for polling that I know of is Hz and the user_frac sysclt Is there a fix for this? thanx - steve
