I noticed the same problem on hp-ux based nfs server and linux based nfs clients Targeting this for RHEL3 U3, changing component to kernel. -ernie A fix for this problem has just been committed to the RHEL3 U3 patch pool (in kernel version 2.4.21-15.1.EL). An errata has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2004-433.html |
Description of problem: When an application dies unexpectedly while holding a file lock on an NFS mounted filesystem, the nfs-utils doesn't clean up the NFS locks. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nfs-utils-0.3.3- 5.1 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run an application that writes data to an NFS mounted drive. 2. Terminate the application with a kill -9 3. Actual results: The there are still read and write locks on the file belonging to the dead processes' PID. Expected results: There would be no locks held.
