Environment
Novell iFolder

Situation
When downloading folders from the iFolder server to the client, the iFolder processes hang.
A side-effect of this problem is that iFolder cannot be stopped with /opt/novell/ifolder3/bin/ifolder_shutdown so the mono processes must be stopped manually with kill.

Resolution
Workaround: Bind the mono process to a single CPU by adding the MONO_NO_SMP=1 parameter to /etc/apache2/conf.d/simias.conf ; e.g.
MonoSetEnv simias10 "SimiasRunAsServer=true;SimiasDataDir=/media/nss/IF01/ifolder/simias/data/simias;MONO_THREADS_PER_CPU=2000"
MonoSetEnv MONO_NO_SMP=1Then stop iFolder and Apache and restart:
/opt/novell/ifolder3/bin/ifolder_shutdown
/etc/init.d/apache2 stop
/etc/init.d/apache2 start
/opt/novell/ifolder3/bin/ifolder_start
/etc/init.d/apache2 stop
/etc/init.d/apache2 start
/opt/novell/ifolder3/bin/ifolder_start
