Just rechecked it: did mksnap_ffs on an otherwise idle file system: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/> mksnap_ffs /st /st/.snap/test_snapshot load: 0.02 cmd: mksnap_ffs 4012 [biord] 0.00u 0.04s 0% 696k load: 0.04 cmd: mksnap_ffs 4012 [biord] 0.00u 0.44s 0% 696k load: 0.21 cmd: mksnap_ffs 4012 [snaprdb] 0.00u 1.17s 0% 696k load: 0.20 cmd: mksnap_ffs 4012 [snaprdb] 0.00u 1.23s 0% 696k load: 0.13 cmd: mksnap_ffs 4012 [snaplk] 0.00u 1.30s 0% 696k load: 0.08 cmd: mksnap_ffs 4012 [snaplk] 0.00u 1.30s 0% 696k load: 0.01 cmd: mksnap_ffs 4012 [snaplk] 0.00u 1.30s 0% 696k (I hit ^T several times) biord phase consumes about 1.5-2 mins, snaprdb phase - about 30-40 secs, and then process died. Most disk requests succeeds; however, accessing /st/.snap locks process in ufs state forever. What bothers me most is that it is the only machine reproducibly hangs in snapshots, and it did not hang before RELENG_5 -> RELENG_6 upgrade. Other RELENG_6 machines do snapshot backups flawlessly (knock-on-wood!)
