Timo -
The only behavior change that I notice is that when I exit the telnet session the truss also exits. Previously, the truss hung around until I did the "pkill dovecot", after exiting the telnet session. So, that's weird. But, hold on! Now I do seem to have a uidlist file, again!
I'd say there's something really wrong with your NFS. What that patch did was close the dovecot-uidlist file before rename()ing it. It shouldn't have been necessary. There are probably other places in Dovecot code which also do that, so that's probably why it didn't get fixed entirely.
What Solaris version are you using?
SunOS velocity 5.8 Generic_117350-06 sun4u sparc
The NFS server is NetApp Release 6.5.3P4
Here's another NFS weirdness detail:
I've got just a ton of .nfs files all over my .mail subdirectory. I think these are the byproduct of our NFS server's keeping snapshot files around, but I'm not sure. Typical content is like:
% head .nfsED2F8 .nfs80729 .nfs0E528 ==> .nfsED2F8 <== 0 NonJunk
==> .nfs80729 <== 0 unknown-0 1 unknown-1 2 unknown-2 3 unknown-3 4 unknown-4 5 unknown-5 6 unknown-6 7 unknown-7 8 unknown-8 9 unknown-9
==> .nfs0E528 <== 1 1150484344 1887 1 1129102770.584_0.savant:2,S 2 1130279636.12280_0.savant:2,S 3 1130286944.21913_0.savant:2,S 4 1130289887.25264_0.savant:2,S 5 1130311569.19250_0.savant:2,S 6 1130380470.14692_0.savant:2,S 7 1130428927.9300_0.savant:2,S 8 1131476238.26857_0.savant:2,S 9 1131514339.14518_0.savant:2,RS
So, these look like uidlist files, right? Interesting.
Also, I've now seen two messages like the following. Are these usual?
