980.0. "NFS hang on DS5900 / 4.3..." by LEMAN::AGASSIS (Think Quality !) Wed Jun 02 1993 14:56

    Yesterday evening, the four nfs deamons hung on a DS5900.
    This system is connected on FDDI via a DEFZA (HW rev.1.0,
    FW rev.1.2).
    
    Just before the hang of the four processes, DEFZA driver has logged 
    the attched errors.
    
    Could someone help us to interpret them ?
    
    Thank's in advance and best regards !

    For your information, it seems that at hang time, our
    Customer has tried the nfswatch utility which
    doesn't support FDDI, yet. It has probably sent a request
    to the driver that it didn't like.
    
    Thus this is not the cause of the hang of nfsd's.
    
    Cheers !
