Hi all,
I'm having problem mounting Oracle CD with "-o rr" option, it is woriking on other server, it looks the mount command is old version.
--------------------------------------------
mount -F cdfs -o rr /dev/dsk/c3t2d0 /cdrom
mount: illegal file system specific option rr
---------------------------------------------
any other option can be use instaed?
Thanks
Ahmed

Try
Mount -F cdft -o r /dev/dsk/c3t2d0 /cdrom

This is for the HP-UX forum... here it is Linux ... you may get more help in HP-UX forum.

But any how try the above and see if this not solve it

Shalom Ahmed,

/usr/sbin/mount -F cdfs -e -o ro,rr /dev/dsk/c3t2d0 /cdrom

Change thedevice and this may work better. Its a production command.

Thanks all,
I tried all the suggestion but, NO luck, I found the machine patch level is Sep 2002, and the man page for mount command do not show the option "-o" support.
The quick solution was to use another server with higher patch level suported -o rr option
and NFS;

On Server with CD,
â # mount -F cdfs -o r /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdromâ
Add in file /etc/exports:
â /cdrom root=server_without_CD
â # exportfs /cdrom
â
In Server without CD,
â # mount -F nfs server_with_CD:/cdrom /cdrom

Regards,
Ahmed
