I was concerned that if you have a mount point /a/b/c/d and when the server is booting, /a/b fails to mount, then the mount point will not be there. It could also be that the mount sequence is incorrect, so it tries to mount /a/b/c/d first and fails then mounts /a/b and you are left wondering why.


As I requested before, can you paste /etc/fstab into the thread?

Hi Robin,

Sorry for delay in posting the output. I was off and below is the output of /etc/fstab

Code:
[root@node1 ~]#cat /etc/fstab

# This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details

/dev/sda2                 /                       ext3    defaults        1 1
/dev/sda1             /boot                   ext3    defaults        1 2
none                    /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0
none                    /dev/shm                tmpfs   defaults        0 0
none                    /proc                   proc    defaults        0 0
none                    /sys                    sysfs   defaults        0 0
/dev/sda3         swap                    swap    defaults        0 0
/dev/sda5          /scratch                ext3    defaults        1 2

/dev/hda                /media/cdrecorder       auto    pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0



#filer01b
filer01b:/vol/am1  /data/am1  nfs     defaults,nfsvers=3        1       2
filer01b:/vol/pro1 /data/pro1 nfs     defaults,nfsvers=3        1       2
filer01b:/vol/pro2 /data/pro2 nfs     defaults,nfsvers=3        1       2
filer01b:/vol/amscratch /data/amscratch nfs     defaults,nfsvers=3        1       2
filer01b:/vol/am3 /data/am3 nfs     defaults,nfsvers=3        1       2

When the reboot took place i believe some thing has written or changed the fstab file and in turn filer01b mount points were missing inside fstab. I have manually edited the fstab file after the reboot.

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.

       mount.nfs4 is used for mounting NFSv4 file system, while mount.nfs is used to mount NFS file systems versions 3 or 2.   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.

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.

       /etc/fstab	 file system table
