Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-04-25 06:00:35 UTC
Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 3 David Howells 2011-04-26 16:13:06 UTC
Would it be possible for you to do SysRq+T at that point to get a task state dump?

Would it be possible for you to try shutting down cachefilesd prior to rebooting to see if that is successful?

Can you verify that the storage being used by cachefilesd isn't remote?

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2011-10-07 15:31:54 UTC
Since RHEL 6.2 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 5 Sapna Francis 2011-11-04 11:07:44 UTC
This issue is not reproducable with the RHEL6.1 GA and the latest version of the Emulex CNA driver. Hence this can issue can be closed
