Has anyone successfully mounted an oracle database using freenas?

I have attempted to create a new database and clone one using a control = file to a directory on an NFS mounted FreeNAS drive and it just hangs. = It also causes the FreeNAS server to stop responding to all requests. I = tested IO using "Bonnie" (search google) and everything works = great. I can copy files to the it fine, but something happens when I try = to mount a database using Oracle. I suspect some sort of configuration = issue but it would be good to hear from someone who has at least opened = a database on FreeNAS.
