Re: pfs_mountd/pfsd

If you are not using NFS services then you don't have to use pfs mount. Just use JRF suggestion and would be enough.

Re: pfs_mountd/pfsd

Don't use pfs:

It can be an Oracle CD-ROM, or a CD created on Windows, or whereever they used Rock Ridge extensions. Long names are truncated or show upper case only. Oracle tells you to use pfs_mount.

Do not use pfs_mount!. Install the Rock-Ridge extension patches instead and never worry about these problems. For HP-UX 11.00 you will need forget all about PFS and install PHKL_26448 (now superceded by PHKL_28060), PHCO_26449, and PHKL_26450 to have HP-UX recognize those file systems automatically on mount! For HP-UX 11.11 (11i) you need PHCO_25841, PHKL_26269, and PHKL_25760 (now superceded by PHKL_28025).

Installation of patches requires a reboot.

swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x autoselect_patches=TRUE -x patch_match_target=TRUE -x patch_filter=*
.* -s pc1005:/var/software/hp/rockridge @`hostname`


To mount a Rockridge CD (instead of using pfs_mount):

mount -F cdfs -o ro,rr,noauto /dev/cdrom /cdrom

To unmount:

umount /cdrom

To share out the cd over NFS:

exportfs -i -o ro,anon=0 /cdrom

On remote:

mount -F nfs sha1:/cdrom /zmnt


Note: client server does NOT need to have Rock Ridge patches installed to access the cdrom remotely.

Note 2: For HP-UX 11iV2 (11.23) - RockRidge is built into the OS - no need for a patch.

Re: pfs_mountd/pfsd

Hi TI_2007 and Geoff

I think I have to burn the CDs. I only do not understand why HP has made a decision to make the download images as iso images. It was much easier the previous format, as depot images.

I will close the thread. Tnxs you all for the help. I assigned points for all of you.

Tnxs a lot, best regards
Jose
