And does the Sun rise again in the morning :-). Sorry.

Aufs is an Application, so you would hope only to get Core Dumps if
something went wrong (and the OS was bulletproof).

Is the Sun setting with a "Panic" or what? There was a posting on the
subject of the OS version, CAP accessing NFS volumes and the lock
daemon not working (aufs got stuck in a lock). The solution given (from
memory) was to bug Sun for a new lockd or a patch tape or something.
I'll post it if it is still here (I can't get there from here).
