When I export the nfs file system its a breeze. But when I try to mount it on the other machine the smitty command hangs on "running" and i get an OK from smitty but with this error.

HTML Code:
mount: 1831-010 server APPSERVER not responding: RPC: 1832-018 Port mapper failure - RPC: 1832-008 Timed out
mount: backgrounding
APPSERVER:/datadb
I have restarted nfs deamons. I have checked the /etc/hosts values. Opened the 2049 and 111 ports on the network but still cant do.. Smilie
Help! Smilie
Connect to the NFS client (not the server with the exported filesystem) and run the command

Code:
stopsrc -g nfs; startsrc -g nfs

Then try to map the filesystem on the client again.

Might work as it appears that part of the NFS system is not running.

Good luck!

NAME
mount.nfs, mount.nfs4 - mount a Network File System SYNOPSIS
mount.nfs remotetarget dir [-rvVwfnsh ] [-o options] DESCRIPTION
mount.nfs is a part of nfs(5) utilities package, which provides NFS client functionality. mount.nfs is meant to be used by the mount(8) command for mounting NFS shares. This subcommand, however, can also be used as a standalone command with limited functionality. remotetarget is a server share usually in the form of servername:/path/to/share. dir is the directory on which the file system is to be mounted. Under Linux 2.6.32 and later kernel versions, mount.nfs can mount all NFS file system versions. Under earlier Linux kernel versions, mount.nfs4 must be used for mounting NFSv4 file systems while mount.nfs must be used for NFSv3 and v2. OPTIONS
-r Mount file system readonly. -v Be verbose. -V Print version. -w Mount file system read-write. -f Fake mount. Don't actually call the mount system call. -n Do not update /etc/mtab. By default, an entry is created in /etc/mtab for every mounted file system. Use this option to skip making an entry. -s Tolerate sloppy mount options rather than fail. -h Print help message. nfsoptions Refer to nfs(5) or mount(8) manual pages. NOTE
For further information please refer nfs(5) and mount(8) manual pages. FILES
