I've been having some strange, intermittent problems with our Sun 4/330 server recently. We are running 4.0.3 and are currently (trying) to support 4 diskless 3/80's and 10 diskless SLC's. The 3/80's have worked fine since day one. The problems have sprung up around the 10 new SLC's and our new 669meg external storage unit. Occasionally, when using the setup_client script, the server would magically reboot itself...what fun! Also, when trying to boot an SLC client that I had just created using setup_client, it sometimes gets all the way to the end of the boot process (..starting network daemons...) and mysteriously hangs. When I try to see whats wrong on the server end, all the nfs daemons are dead! Sometimes the server is so bad, the keyboard is completely locked at a rebbot is my only option! Has anyone else had problems supporting SLC clients with 4.0.3? Any ideas on why booting a new SLC client would trash the server's nfs daemons? Any and all comments/ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated! @xxxxx{==============- giacobbe@pilot.njin.net -==============}xxxxx@ | or | | giacobbe@apollo.montclair.edu |
