We have a venerable (and usually) rock-solid NFS server running redhat linux 6.2, kernel-2.2.24-6.2.3, nfs-utils-1.0.1 and we're seeing periodically (2-3 times a week), where the server seems to go off into la-la land for 5-10 minutes at a time. During which, it doesn't respond to any *new* network requests (nfs, sendmail, etc), though existing nfs mounts seem to continue to work.

During this 5-10 minute period of la-la-ness, the system log records 1-several entries of the form: (hostnames, ip's changed to protect the innocent):
Oct ... mathstat kernel: statd: server localhost not responding, timed out Oct ... server kernel: lockd: cannot monitor 192.168.1.77
Oct ... server kernel: statd: server localhost not responding, timed out Oct ... server kernel: lockd: cannot unmonitor 192.168.1.49 Oct ... server kernel: statd: server localhost not responding, timed out Oct ... server kernel: lockd: cannot monitor 192.168.1.90
Oct ... server kernel: statd: server localhost not responding, timed out Oct ... server kernel: lockd: cannot monitor 192.168.1.77
Oct ... server kernel: statd: server localhost not responding, timed out Oct ... server kernel: lockd: cannot monitor 192.168.1.90
Oct ... server kernel: statd: server localhost not responding, timed out Oct ... server kernel: lockd: cannot monitor 192.168.1.77
Oct ... server kernel: statd: server localhost not responding,timed out Oct ... server kernel: lockd: cannot monitor 192.168.1.90
Oct ... server rpc.statd[450]: Received erroneous SM_UNMON request from server for 192.168.1.49

Any ideas? Suggestions?
