Automount issue
Hi there,
I have a strange problem, I have a NFS server running AIX 7.1 TL3 SP3, let's call it server A. I have another AIX 7.1 TL3 SP3 server, let's call it server B, that's automounting a filesystem from server A.
When server B is automounting the filesystem from server A, I can't see any files or directories. I tried to manually mount the filesystem on server B from server A and I see all the files and directories. On server B I tried to create a file on the automount path, this is working. But when I look on the server A the file I just created is not there. I umounted the exported filesystem on server A and guess what, the file I created on server B was there. It's looks like the automount service from server B is mounting the mount point from server A not the actual filesystem...
Anyone has seen that ?

resource server pathname clients ...

resource Does not apply to NFS. Printed as a hyphen (-).
server Specifies the system from which the resource was mounted.
pathname Specifies the pathname that must be given to the share(1M) command.
