Subject: degrading performance (NFS v.3 client)
Hello !
Please allow me to submit to you a question related to a system which
is a NFS v3 client for a Netapp server. The home directories are
NFS attached. The following behaviour occurs sometimes. The system
becomes very slow. The load average is increasing but the most
interesting observation is the increase of the %iowait. After
reboot the system is running well for many days, then the problem
occurs again.
Any idea ?
Thanks a lot !
Claude
