If you can capture the session waiting on the event, can you trace the
shadow process to see what system call it's making? Is it open()? pstack
on the process is helpful too.
The bug you referenced also has a description in Bug 13245023. If your
pstack at the moment shows the same call stack, your process is waiting
for up to mnt_timeout seconds to open the file on the NFS filesystem. But
the bug causes it to loop until counter overflow. mnt_timeout is specified
in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/oranfstab. But I doubt playing with that number helps
due to the bug. While waiting for the bug fix, maybe you can have a
frequent cron job that opens and closes each file on the NFS just to make
sure their inode info is hot in cache?
