on left you can see the time we checked and then the size of the file
with ls system call). The stupid value from ls seems to be an old file
system descriptor (file descriptor from 2:39 when the check is done at
12:5 or later. At a certain moment, it jumps to another value (see
below, then it moves to file descriptor of 20:38).<br>
<br>
So it looks a cache issue of NFS (provide old file descriptor). Weird
thing is that between 2 checks (like below first error at 12:5 and then
12:32), we have a lot of checks that are ok (so either not using the
caching, either another cache) and then error pops up again with same
"stupid" value.<br>
<br>
This occurs on lot of different files and when an error occurs, it is
on several files at same time (during few seconds), which would give a
hint like: server overloaded=&gt; use NFS cache that is corrupted.<br>
<br>
Does someone has an idea what could it be?<br>
<br>
Could you redirect me if I'm posting something on wrong place?<br>
