Hi, folks. I just built a new box and I'm running the latest OpenSolaris bits. uname says:
SunOS blue 5.11 snv_111b i86pc i386 i86pc Solaris
I just did an image-update last night, but I was seeing this problem in 111a too. I built myself a pool out of four 1TB disks (WD Caviar Green, if that matters):
 pool: tank
state: ONLINE
scrub: none requested
config:
   NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
   tank        ONLINE       0     0     0
     raidz1    ONLINE       0     0     0
       c4d0    ONLINE       0     0     0
       c4d1    ONLINE       0     0     0
       c5d0    ONLINE       0     0     0
       c5d1    ONLINE       0     0     0
errors: No known data errors
I'm trying to create a file system in that pool to hold a mysql database using the command zfs create tank/mysql, but the create command is hanging. Truss of the process shows:
stgr...@blue:~$ pgrep -lf zfs
7471 zfs create tank/mysql
stgr...@blue:~$ pfexec truss -p 7471
door_call(7, 0x080F7008)    (sleeping...)
This is an RPC thing, right?
I had this happen a couple of times before the update yesterday as well. The thing is, the file system actually got created:
stgr...@blue:~$ zfs list tank/mysql
NAME         USED  AVAIL  REFER  MOUNTPOINT
tank/mysql  28.4K  2.65T  28.4K  /tank/mysql
and I can happily cd to the file system and do things there. I've let zfs create sit in this state for a good long while, with nothing ever happening. Control-C-ing the zfs create doesn't seem to cause any problems, but the whole thing is a bit worrisome. I'm happy to do whatever crazy things you suggest to figure out why this is happening...

I suspect this is probably a nameservice lookup call running
'pfiles 7471' should confirm.

Thanks, I'll check that when I'm back in front of the machine. This might be the same thing that's causing sshes to the machine to hang too.
