We'll try to find that out... It might be a locked-up database, for example. In that case, try a command that doesn't require catalog access, like time. If that doesn't reply, I'd recommend attaching strace to the DIR processes to see what they're doing (unless you're more comfortable with gdb...) Also, use df and free to verify the necessary system resources are available (memory and disk space), and check with ps or top and vmstat if any process is using extraordinary amounts of CPU, ram, or I/O capacity. If 'time' gets you a reply, but anything requiring catalog access doesn't, check for database problems in the database logs or the system logs. The system logs might tell you about problems anyway, so I recommend having a look at them anyway. > If you need the director, storage or file-daemon configuration I need to > prepare them, but is not a problem.
