Hello,
I'm trying to setup a FreeBSD NAS box to use for storage for datafiles running on a solaris 2.6 box.
This worked fine when the NAS box was linux or using NFS version 2 on FreeBSD, but we ran into a limit at 2 gigs. We are now running nfs version 3 on the FreeBSD side, but when oracle accesses the datafiles it cannot lock the files and writes errors to the dbwr trace file like the following:

ORA-01157: cannot identify/lock data file 1 - see DBWR trace file
ORA-01110: data file 1: '/oradata/nas1/OAD/data/l1_sys01.dbf'
ORA-27086: skgfglk: unable to lock file - already in use

SVR4 Error: 22: Invalid argument
Additional information: 8

kgffsubmit: failed to unlock file
'/oradata/nas1/OAD/data/l1_sys01.dbf'

lockd is running.
Anyone know how to resolve this issue?
