SubjectNFS hangs under 2.2.6
We do regular backups each night having all boxes NFS mounted on a central
server equipped with a tape drive. Every Tuesday night the box rebooted
since we switched to 2.2.X. I finally ran the backup for that special
machine manually.

Backup ran normally for awhile until it got to the /dev directory. Then
there was an endless scroll of barely readable NFS error messages on the
console.

Something about "NFS client: inode locked/unavailable" and "retrying".
This went on for awhile until some system resources were exhausted and the
watchdog daemon took the machine down.

I could not find any messages at all in the system logs.

Any hints on how to proceed with that one? Backing up other linux boxes
via NFS works just fine.
