Subject: There is no 'no space' message when using xfs with nfs.

hi all


i use xfs filesystem over nfs


I am using the xfs file system via NFS on two Linux servers.

Even though xfs is full, you will not get a 'no space' message through nfs.

The server's load average goes up and the kworker consumes the CPU.

The server's nfs service is not responding.

When ext3 is full in the same environment, I get a 'no space' message.

Which part of nfs and xfs should be checked?


Below is the environment I am using.
