Change automounter default values

Mihaita Bighiu — Fri, 07 Jun 2002 01:05:14 GMT

I like to mount a FS with specific values for wsize , rsize and timeout using the outomounter. At the same time other FS wih are mounted via automounter (mentioned in /etc/auto.direct) should be mounted with the default values. I am using HP-UX 11.00.
Also I like to know how to change the default automounter values.

Thanks,
Mihaita.

Hi,

The files that you may need to change are /etc/rc.config/nfsconf and /etc/nsswitch.conf.

Hi and thanks for your question.
To be more specific! What I am tring to do is to change the default value for rsize and wsize for a paricular entry in /etc/auto.direct file. The automunter is working fine with default values for the other files. For my particular FS I am getting intermittent NFS errors (NFS server does not respond). This is because that FS has more than 5000 files (and will continue to grow). I found that NFS is working fine when I manually mounted my FS with rsize=1500 and wsize=1500.

One more question! Does somebody know how to change the automounter default protocol from UPD to TCP for a particular FS?
Thanks.
