How can I check to see when nis server is starting? I look at /etc/rc2.d/ but I don't see it in there.
Every time we have power outage problem. I have to start autof service manual. So I think it might have to do with nis server services.
If you can get correct output from:
After a reboot then NIS is okay, it is more likely that the RC script links are missing or have been renamed to disable them, check that the /etc/init.d/autofs script is present and correct and then run:
to find the start and stop links to /etc/init.d/aufofs, there should be at least one starting with a capital S to start the autofs and onw with a capital K to stop it.
If the problem only occurs after a power outage but not after a reboot then it won't be missing rc script links, it would be worth checking /var/adm/messages for any clues as to what is complaining.
If you are suffereing power outage problems then make sure you have ufs logging enabled for all you disk mounts in /etc/vfstab, e.g.:
It will drastically reduce the necessity to fsck the filesystem and so improve the chances of the machine coming back up without human intervention.
