Hi,
I have a problem on my workstation hp11i. When the automount process increase a lot ( around 657M ), i can mount nothnig ...
A view of top :

CPU TTY PID USERNAME PRI NI SIZE RES STATE TIME %WCPU %CPU COMMAND
0 ? 19254 to28797 154 22 87716K 81264K sleep 11:36 31.94 31.89 perl
0 ? 26417 to28797 202 22 28900K 24624K run 5:43 31.72 31.66 perl
1 ? 17593 root 152 20 657M 652M run 214:16 11.60 11.58 automountd

I have a lot of automount errors on syslog :

automountd[1276]: parse_entry: mapentry parse error: map=/etc/auto_home key=eqtcv4
automountd[1276]: parse_entry: mapentry parse error: map=/etc/auto_home key=eqtcv5u-2
above message repeats 7 times
...

Have you got an idea ?

Hi,

is your system at a current patch level?
As well, please post your /etc/auto_home and /etc/auto_master!

OK suprateam,

then we should take a look at the content of the NIS-map auto.home - please post at least everything dealing around
eqtcv4
eqtcv5u-2
even when created by wildcard entries.

I think the problem isn't a nis problem.
Because all it's allright, the problem it's when automountd process increase

# niscat auto_home.org_dir|grep -i eqtcv4
eqtcv4 pcadlib:/export/pcadlib/L1/EQTCV4

# niscat auto_home.org_dir|grep -i eqtcv5u-2
eqtcv5u-2 filer029:/vol/volf29_03/eqtcv5u-2
