# exportfs -a
This will export both of them, so won't change profile.

Hi Santosh

Simply run after adding lines in /etc/exports

#exportfs -a

and verify by using

#showmount -e

Hi,

if this should be a one-time-change, there is no need to change /etc/exports - use

exportfs -i -o root=MYHPAPP,access=MYHPAPP /sapmnt/PRD/global

Dear Santhosh

once u added an entry in /etc/exports file
u have to force re read that file for that u have to use exportfs -a command
once u used exportfs -a command it is exported
u can see this in u /etc/xtab file
thanks and regards

Thanks Everybady...............

Here i am writing procedure Plz check it & Tell me it correct or not

In PRD server

1.Edit exports & add entry
sapmnt/PRD/global -root=MYHPAPP,access=MYHPAPP

2.#exportfs -a

3.showmount -e (to show mount FS)

In App Server

1. Edit fstab & add entry as
MYHPPRD:/sapmnt/PRD/global /sapmnt/PRD/global nfs defaults 0 0

2. mount MYHPPRD:/sapmnt/PRD/global /sapmnt/PRD/global

or

mount /sapmnt/PRD/global

3 #bdf

is this right?

>3.showmount -e (to show mount FS)

You can also look at /etc/xtab.

>In App Server

You forgot you need to mkdir the mount point:
# mkdir -p /sapmnt/PRD/global
(You may have to set the permissions to global to be a+rwx=ugo.)

>is this right?

Sure looks like it.
