I have some problems with NFS on a domU. Having mounted my home
partition on Dom0 from an nfs server on a domU I invoke an X-Session and
get my e-mail from my server from another DomU with thunderbird. I get
some 1000 mails a day. Sometimes suddenly all hangs and
/var/log/messages tell me "NFS server cannot be contacted".
I can ping to the outside but I cannot ping each of my DomU's.
My second xenified machine doesn't crash and runs several days now. but
has neither an nfs server nor an X-server installed.
I filed a bug today and do not mount my home partition from the nfs
server anymore although every 2nd day a script connects to all my
domains over ssh and does an emerge -update -deep world [+metadata]
after --sync on the portage proxy over nfs, which is apparently the same
nfs server my home partion came from. I will investigate that further
and report if I still have problems.
Greetings,
Robert
