Oops... Somebody pointed out that I completely forgot to identify
my system:
Tru64 5.1 PK 3
using advfs for all filesystems
The problem was fixed with a reboot, but I'd still like to know
what caused it, if it's known. The list archives don't seem to
mention any problems with fuser on systems newer than 5.0.
original question was:
-------------------------------
I just had one of the DBA group ask if I could see what was hanging
their session (they had started a patch script and it hadn't done
anything for about 20 minutes). `ps` indicated that the current process
for their session was running `fuser` and that fuser had gone into
state U (Uninteruptible sleep). Silly me executed the same command
on the same file and it did the same thing. Then I did `fuser` on
a different file and it did the same thing. Any ideas on why this
might be happening? Here's the output for the process that ps gives:
root 228122 0.0 0.0 1.76M 192K pts/5 U + 11:30:12 0:00.01
/usr/sbin/fuser /u02/dfindb/8.1.7/bin/oracle
