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,

NAME
copyfs-mount - mounts a versioned file system SYNOPSIS
copyfs-mount version-directory mount-point DESCRIPTION
This script lets you mount a CopyFS file system. version-directory is the directory where the files and version information will be stored by CopyFS. When using CopyFS for the first time, copyfs-mount will create the required files in the version-directory before running copyfs-daemon. mount-point is the directory where the copyfs file system will be mounted. This is where the users will have access to the files. If you want to mount a CopyFS at '/mnt/fs', whose version directory is at /var/versions, you would use: root@host# copyfs-mount /var/versions /mnt/fs To unmount it, simply do: root@host# umount /mnt/fs As you would do for any other filesystem. You can also allow an ordinary non-root users to mount and unmount CopyFS filesystems provided that the user is added to the 'fuse' group. Ordinary users will be able unmount the filesystem, using the fusermount command: $ fusermount -u mount-point AUTHORS
