** Description changed: I seem to experience a race condition during boot of my ubuntu 12.04 server: In approx. one of seven boots, the server hangs during bootup. This is what I see on the screen: After the line - * Starting configure network device + * Starting configure network device there is a short delay of about 1 second, then messages continue. I see - * Starting Mount network filesystems [ OK ] - * Starting set sysctls from /etc/sysctl.conf [ OK ] - * Starting configure network device [ OK ] - * Stopping Mount network filesystems [ OK ] - * Stopping set sysctls from /etc/sysctl.conf [ OK ] - * Starting Block the mounting event for NFS filesytems until statd is running [ OK ] - * Stopping Block the mounting event for NFS filesytems until statd is running [ OK ] - * Starting Block the mounting event for NFS filesytems until statd is running [ OK ] - * Stopping Block the mounting event for NFS filesytems until statd is running [ OK ] + * Starting Mount network filesystems [ OK ] + * Starting set sysctls from /etc/sysctl.conf [ OK ] + * Starting configure network device [ OK ] + * Stopping Mount network filesystems [ OK ] + * Stopping set sysctls from /etc/sysctl.conf [ OK ] + * Starting Block the mounting event for NFS filesytems until statd is running [ OK ] + * Stopping Block the mounting event for NFS filesytems until statd is running [ OK ] + * Starting Block the mounting event for NFS filesytems until statd is running [ OK ] + * Stopping Block the mounting event for NFS filesytems until statd is running [ OK ] The last messages repeats several times, and then the boot process hangs. In 6/7 of cases, I wait for a minute, and after that bootup continues. But in approx 1/7 cases, the system hangs at this point forever. The machine does not respond to CTRL-ALT-DEL, I have to reboot it using SysRq-Keys. + + WORKAROUND: Setting the NFS entries in fstab to "noauto" completely removes the problem: + There is no timeout during boot, and no lockup any more. The machine boote smoothly with the NFS-shares unmounted. After the machine is up, we can manually mount the NFS-shares without a problem.
