Device or resource busy??

Hi,

I'm trying to do a sharity mount to mount a terastation network drive.

I'm getting a Device or resource busy message after my mount command. Please see output below...

# /usr/local/sharity3/bin/sharity mount smb://labbackup01/bakup_data /mnt/labbackup01

Device or resource busy.
Error Context: returned by mount task.


Anyone know what could cause device busy message upon a mount command? I've seen this before on unmount, but never on mount.


thanks,
