Hi Marko,

Actually i dont find that load critical. I think those lines well tell that 
actually the process is running 581m42s and now it utilizes 13.48% of available 
WCPU which is a long run and hopefully successfull if no nfs failures took 
place.

Im pretty confident that FreeBSD wont let any bad things happen and will 
allocate the resources where it needs them the most and on time.

I've googled for a few minutes and found this:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-bugs/1994/09/28/0000.html

which sounds like a "kernel tuning issue" if you have excluded nfsserver out of 
your kernel config last time u were compiling it. if you didnt just skip this 
part at this time.
    please make sure that the following lines do exist
    options         NFSCLIENT               # Network Filesystem  Client
    options         NFSSERVER               # Network Filesystem Server
    options         NFS_ROOT                # NFS usable as /, requires 
NFSCLIENT

or it can be this:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2002/08/msg02884.html

which sounds like umm "daemon aging" issue. is there such thing? 
if yes, then i hope someone will share a hint on nfs server maintenance during 
a long run. I dont really think that restarting it on daily basis is a good 
thing to do 

can i see some more info on nfsd please?
# ps -wux -p `pgrep nfsd`


Sincerely,

Nash

My friend found the 'problem' but I'm not shure who's problem it is.
The clients or the nfs servers. In the handbook section about NFS there
is nothing about this.

These options are added in rc.conf and server now works correctly.  

rpc_lockd_enable="YES"
rpc_statd_enable="YES"

But later in the handbook section:

Figure 2-54. Network Configuration Lower-level

The rpcbind(8), rpc.statd(8), and rpc.lockd(8) utilities are all used for 
Remote Procedure Calls (RPC). The rpcbind utility manages communication 
between NFS servers and clients, and is *required* for NFS servers to operate 
correctly.

So I think this should be in the NFS section. Anyone?

The clients are RedHatES4 and servers are FreeBSD 6.1
