Shalom,

You win a prize.

You got a meaningful error message

df: cannot statvfs /amd/net/asd/vol/unix/vv_as_dev: No such file or directory

This is simple. From the viewpoint of the system involved the file or directory is not there.

Take a look at it, it looks a little malformed.

Perhaps take a look at the script that generates it.

If you did unmount it first, and then remount afterwards, chances are that the automounter is attempting to use /home. You'll need to make sure that if ANY of the users in /etc/passwd have a home directory under /home that you create the directory, or at least that /home exists and the home directories are being automounted form wherever you move them to.

One more cause for this Could be that something was 'illegaly' removed from the system but still remains in a mounttab or something?

So if the mnttab was wrongly modified try correctin it.
