Help with NFS shares

Hi,

I have got nfs shares that were shared from storage (Netapp) to linux servers (RHEL 4) that were on automount.

All the share were visible and mounted on the linux serves eventhough they were on auto mount.

But recently one of the server was rebooted and mount points were disappeard and i can see from fstab file that has been edited as well. so i have keept it back similar to other servers where it works.

Some mount points are missing . They are not shown in df output or under mount point but seems to be present logically.

As i know the location when i cd into that directory the mount point reappears and disappears again when i come out of the directory.

when i try to manually mount it, i get a message saying that it is already mount and it is busy.

Other servers doesnt face this problem even after reboot. All th auto mount points are always visible on them.

Even though these are on auto mount is there any option that made them always visible. If so could any one provide the info?

Thanks,
P

mount.nfs

MOUNT.NFS(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      MOUNT.NFS(8)

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

       /etc/fstab	 file system table
