## Issue Report ### Environment - **Operating System:** - Ubuntu 22 over proxmox 8.1 - 10 G network NAT - 8G network WAN - Nas are openmediavault over proxmox 8.1 Ubuntu server 22, on proxmox 8.1. - **Pulsar/Advanced CLI/Docker:** CLI ### Problem Hello ! I’m starting to farm / plot over network. I was having two node + farmer on two different VM. One was with ryzen 5900 wich plot like a hammer, and the other was an old E5-2680-V4 wich was not good. So i swapped disk from slow plotter to new one. - First issue, the plot is not reconized apparently. - Second issue, farmer do not start, it does nothing and stay stuck into disk init. This is my farmer services (/opt is local drive, /mnt are only nfs) ```shell # /etc/systemd/system/subspace_farmer.service [Unit] Description="subspace farmer" After=network-online.target [Service] User=chimera Group=chimera WorkingDirectory=/opt/chimera/farmer/ ExecStart=subspace_farmer farm \ --node-rpc-url ws://127.0.0.1:9944 \ path=/opt/chimera/farmer/ssd,size=800G \ path=/opt/chimera/farmer/nvme,size=900G \ path=/mnt/hydras_alpha_crucial_2TO_baie/alpha,size=900G \ path=/mnt/hydras_alpha_fikwot4T_baie_top_left/alpha,size=900G \ path=/mnt/subspace_001,size=3.5T \ --reward-address st8VCipcz7xezUnM73T7szCiyNau51YYJAGovKGETUjuPy5oj \ --listen-on /ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/30533 \ --prometheus-listen-on 0.0.0.0:9081 StandardOutput=append:/var/log/chimera/subspace_farmer/farmer.log StandardError=append:/var/log/chimera/subspace_farmer/farmer.log LimitNOFILE=infinity Restart=on-failure RestartSec=5s [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target ``` this is my fstab (nfs part) ```shell 192.168.1.19:/export/hydras_alpha_crucial_2TO_baie /mnt/hydras_alpha_crucial_2TO_baie nfs rw,noatime,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,proto=tcp,nolock,intr,hard,timeo=600 0 0 192.168.1.19:/export/hydras_alpha_fikwot4T_baie_top_left /mnt/hydras_alpha_fikwot4T_baie_top_left nfs rw,noatime,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,proto=tcp,nolock,intr,hard,timeo=600 0 0 192.168.1.58:/export/subspace_001 /mnt/subspace_001 nfs rw,noatime,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,proto=tcp,nolock,intr,hard,timeo=600 0 0 ``` About logs, well it’s stuck here. nothing more. ```auto 2024-02-22T16:57:00.818657Z INFO subspace_farmer::commands::farm: Connecting to node RPC url=ws://127.0.0.1:9944 2024-02-22T16:57:00.831604Z INFO subspace_networking::constructor: DSN instance configured. allow_non_global_addresses_in_dht=false peer_id=12D3KooWCeNFYtX6py5gXdZzNt3Pg4qHsEJ1fuUBkpZT5zh9RwbE protocol_version=/subspace/2/0c121c75f4ef450f40619e1fca9d1e8e7fbabc42c895bc4790801e85d5a91c34 2024-02-22T16:57:00.837985Z INFO libp2p_swarm: local_peer_id=12D3KooWCeNFYtX6py5gXdZzNt3Pg4qHsEJ1fuUBkpZT5zh9RwbE 2024-02-22T16:57:00.839683Z INFO subspace_metrics: Metrics server started. endpoints=[0.0.0.0:9081] 2024-02-22T16:57:00.840675Z INFO actix_server::builder: starting 2 workers 2024-02-22T16:57:00.841829Z INFO actix_server::server: Tokio runtime found;

I never had the patience to get farming to work (10G, 7TB plot file). Plotting works without issue when you create a new plot file (and do not farm it). nfsstat and nfsiostat can give some valuable info. The I/O required for farming might take too long to execute, you end up with a backlog. The easier fix might be to reconfigure your servers to a fitting layout. ---

Well, it seems fixed now… The only issue I had was the plot that i swapped from farmer A to farmer B. @enzimes told me to try to detroy it and restart farming. All work properly now. ---

Well, going back into this topic. Having hard time on nfs, and pretty noob with it as said earlier. do you know nice tools to diagnose issue with nfs mount point ? used this cfg from omv side [10Gbe / NFS Tuning - NFS - openmediavault](https://forum.openmediavault.org/index.php?thread/31295-10gbe-nfs-tuning/)
