Hi VenkatReddy786,

Welcome to forum, please use code tags for any commands or codes. you can go through once with all forum rules. Also let me give you some basic ideas here for same and please try it by yourself and let us know if you face any issues with what you would have tried so far.

i- you can make a script for checking mount points by using df command check them before and after activity and compare them after activity they should be same as before activity.

ii- To ake a permanent solution, you can check fstab file in /etc/fstab in case of bash, make sure here mount points are not soft. Meaning if they are mentoned as soft mount points they will not come up after reboot. This should be permanent fix for the issue.

EDIT: In case of solaris it should be /etc/vfstab.

kindly try out the steps and let us know if you face any issues.

Thanks,
R. Singh

fstab

FSTAB(5)							File Formats Manual							  FSTAB(5)

NAME

       fstab, mtab - list of file systems to mount, mounted file system table.

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/fstab

       /etc/mtab

DESCRIPTION

       /etc/fstab  is  a table of file system to mount at boot time, /etc/mtab is a table of currently mounted file systems as maintained by mount
       and umount.

       /etc/fstab is not read by mount as it should be.  It is instead a simple shell script listing the three devices that Minix needs  to  oper-
       ate:   The device names of the root file system, the temporary (scratch) file system, and the file system for /usr.  Of these only the /usr
       file system is mounted in /etc/rc, the scratch file system is there for the system administrator to test new kernels,  or  as  a  temporary
       file system.

       /etc/mtab contains lines of four fields.  The layout is:

	      device	directory    type    options

       These fields may be explained as follows:

       device
	      A block special device.

       directory
	      Mount point.

       type
	      Either 1, or 2, indicating a V1 or V2 file system.

       options
	      Either ro, or rw, indicating a read-only or read-write mounted file system.

FILES

       /etc/fstab     Shell script naming three important file systems.

       /etc/mtab      List of mounted file systems.

SEE ALSO

       printroot(8), mount(1), fsck(1), mkfs(1).

BUGS

       /etc/fstab is a joke.
