Operating Systems AIX NFS mount from windows NAS with NFS server, have hidden folder on UNIX Post 303046112 by hicksd8 on Friday 24th of April 2020 04:32:52 AM

Let me say firstly that I am not an AIX expert. So what I am posting here now is just a generic Unix world response.

What have you tried already? You may already have tried this, but..................

NFS comes in 3 different currently available versions; version 2, 3 or 4.

Do you know which version the Windows hosted NFS for Unix is talking??

From the symptoms you are posting it seems likely that your issue is security based and the main differences between version 2, 3 and 4 are security performance/features.

Therefore, you need to know that each end of the NFS is talking the same language.

If you don't know the version that the Windows end is talking then no harm in trying your mount command with

Code:
-o vers=2
-o vers=3
-o vers=4

included on the command line (see your mount man page) to explore whether (a) it's the same, (b) it doesn't work at all, or (c) it fixes the issue.

There are other things we can consider but this is the first thing to try if you haven't already.

NAME
nfsiostat - Emulate iostat for NFS mount points using /proc/self/mountstats SYNOPSIS
nfsiostat [[<interval>] [<count>]] [<options>][<mount_point>] DESCRIPTION
The nfsiostat command displays NFS client per-mount statisitics. <interval> specifies the amount of time in seconds between each report. The first report contains statistics for the time since each file sys- tem was mounted. Each subsequent report contains statistics collected during the interval since the previous report. <count> If the <count> parameter is specified, the value of <count> determines the number of reports generated at <interval> seconds apart. if the interval parameter is specified without the <count> parameter, the command generates reports continuously. <options> Define below <mount_point> If one or more <mount point> names are specified, statistics for only these mount points will be displayed. Otherwise, all NFS mount points on the client are listed. OPTIONS
-a or --attr displays statistics related to the attribute cache -d or --dir displays statistics related to directory operations -h or --help shows help message and exit -l LIST or --list=LIST only print stats for first LIST mount points -p or --page displays statistics related to the page cache -s or --sort Sort NFS mount points by ops/second --version show program's version number and exit FILES
