Package: autofs Version: 4.1.4-6 Severity: important
We are starting to see severe automount problems on 4 way and 8 way machines. The error messages in the log are similar to bug #316378, but unlike this other bug we are not using indirect automounts. There is an interesting thread on the autofs mailing list: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg04644.html where they are discussing locking issues with autofs and whether they should be performing locking at all. We have not observed these problems on uni-processor or dual-processor machines. The problem is exacerbated when running a 64 bit environment, the machine is barely usable in this case. I'm going to try and back down to the 4.1.3 version of autofs, to see if our issues go away as suggested in the kernel thread above. Thanks!
