Solaris

Hi Friends,

I am trying following command on my solaris box:

mount abchostlinux12:/data1/mount_dir /data/mount_dir

OUTPUT:
nfs mount: abchostlinux12: : RPC: Rpcbind failure - RPC: Success
nfs mount: retrying: /data/mount_dir

After this there is no response on command line. I have observed for more than four hours but still it is stuck on "nfs mount: retrying: /data/mount_dir "

Infact i can mount from different machine on the same solaris box's /data/mount_dir location. Please help as soon as possible.

Regards,

could be a nfs version conflict... try to use the version in the mount options. something like:

Code:

# mount -F nfs -o vers=3 server:/server/mount /local/mount

maybe the linux server uses a older nfs version. so you can also try "vers=2".

Hey Duke thanks for your help but unfortunately the solution dint work i am still facing the same issue. what can be the issue?

has this mount been shared to other devices and if so, what OS are they running?

what is the output of "dfshares ip-of-linux-server"?

The output is as follows:

nfs dfshares: (linux IP): RPC: Rpcbind failure - RPC: Success

I have unmounted the earlier mounting to this path on solaris. That OS is not accesible to us but we can only mount it. So I cannot mention which Os version I was mounting to earlier.

I have resolved this error after exporting the path on /etc/exports file.

Thanks all for your help.
