Df -h stuck on solaris. How to stop it?

Solution 1:

My guess here is that you are running a version 3 NFS connection and on Solaris 11 you should be running version 4. One of the defects of version 3 was that it would hang the system on something like a df because the NFS would never return a result. I have seen system failures over this.

As has been suggested you will need to terminate the process and then look at the mounts. You can reset the serial connection and then deal with your underlying issue.
