Hi
The following errors occur when I use kernel 2.6.18-92.1.6.el5 but not with kernel 2.6.18-53.1.21.el5, with no change to any conf files when I switch kernels. I am running RHEL 5.
I am a newbie and apologize in advance if this is the wrong place to ask this question or if this message contains inadequate information. Please advise.
The problem is that when the nfs service starts I get the following error message on my nis clients (again this is only with kernel 2.6.18-92.1.6 and not 2.6.18-53.1.21)
[root@chinook init.d]# service nfs start Starting NFS services: [ OK ] Starting NFS quotas: yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out [ OK ] Starting NFS daemon: [ OK ] Starting NFS mountd: yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_all: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out [ OK ]
This occurs when the system is booting or if I stop and then start the service.
No messages relevant to this error appear in /var/log/messages
No matter which kernel starts yp is appropriately bound to the NIS server ypwhich returns the name of the server and ypcat passwd returns the passwords.
RPC appears to be running correctly
[root@chinook ~]# rpcinfo -p localhost program vers proto port 100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper 100000 2 udp 111 portmapper 100007 2 udp 966 ypbind 100007 1 udp 966 ypbind 100007 2 tcp 969 ypbind 100007 1 tcp 969 ypbind 100024 1 udp 644 status 100024 1 tcp 652 status 100021 1 udp 32784 nlockmgr 100021 3 udp 32784 nlockmgr 100021 4 udp 32784 nlockmgr 100021 1 tcp 43375 nlockmgr 100021 3 tcp 43375 nlockmgr 100021 4 tcp 43375 nlockmgr 100011 1 udp 766 rquotad 100011 2 udp 766 rquotad 100011 1 tcp 790 rquotad 100011 2 tcp 790 rquotad 100003 2 udp 2049 nfs 100003 3 udp 2049 nfs 100003 4 udp 2049 nfs 100003 2 tcp 2049 nfs 100003 3 tcp 2049 nfs 100003 4 tcp 2049 nfs 100005 1 udp 804 mountd [root@chinook ~]# rpcinfo -u localhost ypbind program 100007 version 1 ready and waiting program 100007 version 2 ready and waiting
ypdomainname, nisdomainname, hostname all return appropriate values, which are not different between kernels. Searching google returned a suggestion to change the file limits > ulimit -n 256, but this does not resolve the error. I am running the following versions of programs (of course these do not change when switching kernels) ypbind-1.19-8.el5 yp-tools-2.9-0.1 nfs-utils-1.0.9-33.el5 nfs-utils-lib-1.0.8-7.2.z2 nfs4-acl-tools-0.3.1-1.el5.1
Please CC me on any replies. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is driving me crazy. Darren
