I have a script on my NIM Master that runs with crons and performs mksysb backups of all NIM Clients once a week.
There is a problem with one of the clients as it stucks and never finishes the mksysb backups.
I tried to unmount the NFS file system created by the NIM in order to perform the mksysb but i cannot do it.
I killed all processes from NIM Master and client about the nim operation but i still cannot unmount the NFS.
I even tried umount -f but i still get the message below:
i don't know what else to try. I searched through smitty the nfs filesystems for this server but it doesn't appear anywhere. I cannot understand why it still try to mount it.
Hi,
I try to unmount :
smbumount /mnt/directory
But I receive :
Could not umount /mnt/directory: Device or resource busy
Any idea ?
Many thanks. (4 Replies)

umount.nfs
UMOUNT.NFS(8) System Manager's Manual UMOUNT.NFS(8)NAME
umount.nfs, umount.nfs4 - unmount a Network File System
SYNOPSIS
umount.nfs dir [-fvnrlh ]
DESCRIPTION
umount.nfs and umount.nfs4 are a part of nfs(5) utilities package, which provides NFS client functionality.
umount.nfs4 and umount.nfs are meant to be used by the umount(8) command for unmounting NFS shares. This subcommand, however, can also be
used as a standalone command with limited functionality.
dir is the directory on which the file system is mounted.
OPTIONS -f Force unmount the file system in case of unreachable NFS system.
-v Be verbose.
-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 delet-
ing an entry.
-r In case unmounting fails, try to mount read-only.
-l Lazy unmount. Detach the file system from the file system hierarchy now, and cleanup all references to the file system as soon as it
is not busy anymore.
-h Print help message.
NOTE
For further information please refer nfs(5) and umount(8) manual pages.
