    I occasionally see error messages on NFS clients such as:

    nfs server files:/rmt/mnt: not responding
    pmap_collect: collecting pv entries -- suggest increasing PMAP_SHPGPERPROC
    got bad cookie vp 0xdc92a9c0 bp 0xcc578fac
    got bad cookie vp 0xdc92a9c0 bp 0xcc578e60

    NFS actually runs fine. We haven't had any real problems.

    On the client I do see some errors:

    # nfsstat -c
    Client Info:
    ...
    Rpc Info:
     TimedOut Invalid X Replies Retries Requests
           26 0 162 508 405121

    My thoughts are a bad cable or switch going to the NFS server, but I'm
    curious what others think.

    This happens on multiple NFS clients.

    (Well, I only found the PMAP_SHPGPERPROC entry on one.)

    The NFS server is FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE and the clients FreeBSD 4.10.
