Yea, NFS processes can get into an uninterruptible and unkillable sleep state where then only way to clean up is to reboot.

- bravetraveler 4y agoSo glad/validated to see this thread. I always inevitably end up ranting about this when NFS comes up. The frustrating thing is, a shocking number of people either don't realize it or simply can't. I've lost weeks of my life to D-state. All TCP, all new protocol revisions. Datacenter wide deployment with redundant ports, paths, everything.
- chasil 4y agoInstead of rebooting, try a lazy unmount on Linux. umount -l /stuck/directory
- vetrom 4y agoYou still get stuck processes on D state which can be locking other resources. Maybe the kernel could use an alternate kill api for this, as being able to kill a D state process normally is problematic in many apps and should never be possible 'accidentally'.
