It sounds like your system is trying to mount an NFS share from somewhere, but that share is unavailable for some reason. Look for any mount processes running on your system. That's probably what's causing the message. Or it could be the automounter trying to mount a remote NFS share too.

hi..

How to fine if it is trying to mount some NFS share..or not
i saw ps -ef but there is no such process i can find ........

ls command is working but ls -al it is hanging and that message is coming...

previous week i have mounted 4 file system from this server on an another server for backup purpose but after that i have unmounted all now no file ststem is exported............if i reboot it it is fine for some time but after that the NFS server not responding still trying message is coming............

how to trace out which NFS it is trying to mount...

please suggest..

This sounds like an automounter problem. If you are not using the automounter, turn it off. You can do that by editing /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf. Change "AUTOMOUNT=1" to "AUTOMOUNT=0" and reboot.
