That's precisely what I'm experiencing. System still responds to ping. Anything that was already running in memory via network stays alive (cron jobs continue to run) but remote access is impossible (ssh, vnc, even local physical console...) And eventually the system will stop completely. There's a high correlation between the problem and doing some sort of low-level storage operation (zpool import/export, MegaCli offline, zpool status, scrub, zfs send, etc) So I thought the problem was somehow related to the perc or something ... Maybe there's a bug where the perc conflicts with the nic. I don't care. Swapping the NIC is cheap enough, I'll try it now, just to see if it works. Thanks for the suggestion... _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
