pfs_mount error
I am trying to mount an Oracle cdrom using the pfs_mount command. I get the following error:
# /usr/sbin/pfs_mount /CDROM
/usr/sbin/pfs_mount: /dev/dsk/c2t2d0 on /CDROM: not rrip.
/usr/sbin/pfs_mount: giving up on /CDROM
I followed the "nohup" instructions to start the pfs daemons and created the /etc/pfs_fstab file.
# cat /etc/pfs_fstab
The following daemons are running:
# ps -fea|grep pfs
root 4906 26288 0 11:52:19 pts/t5 0:00 /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd
root 14654 14650 0 11:54:58 pts/t5 0:00 pfsd.rpc
root 14650 26288 0 11:54:58 pts/t5 0:00 /usr/sbin/pfsd
root 4909 4906 0 11:52:19 pts/t5 0:00 pfs_mountd.rpc
root 28478 9284 0 12:23:55 pts/t7 0:00 grep pfs
Please help.
Thanks

Re: pfs_mount error
Your post suggests that /etc/pfs_fstab is empty. It should contain the line:-
/dev/dsk/c2t2d0 /cdrom pfs-rrip xlat=unix 0 0
If you cd drive is c2t2d0.
Do a mkdir /cdrom then pfs_mount /cdrom should work ok with an Oracle install CD.
Regards,
John

Re: pfs_mount error
Your /etc/pfs_fstab file should look like this for optimal settings (reliability)
/dev/rdsk/cxxxxxx /SD_CDROM (or /cdrom) pfs-rrip xlat=unix,soft 1 0
Dont forget to use the /dev/rdsk - much more reliable than /dev/dsk, and the soft option, this way if it hangs you can remove the /etc/pfs_mnttab file and it wont hang the server forcing an immediate reboot - although you will still need to reboot later to free up the cd drive.

Re: pfs_mount error
Originally I had
# cat /etc/pfs_fstab
/dev/dsk/c0t2d0 /SD_CDROM pfs-rrip xlat=unix 0 0
which produced the above error.
I changed it to /dev/rdsk/c0t2d0 /SD_CDROM pfs-rrip xlat=unix,soft 1 0
and killed and restarted the pfs daemons.
I got the same error.
/usr/sbin/pfs_mount: /dev/rdsk/c0t2d0 on /SD_CDROM: not rrip.
/usr/sbin/pfs_mount: giving up on /SD_CDROM

Re: pfs_mount error
If your file is correct, try killing all pfs demons and starting them up again. Of course, make sure that nfs is running before starting pfs.

Re: pfs_mount error
/dev/dsk/c2t2d0 /SD_CDROM pfs-rrip xlat=unix 1 0
Now are you sure the cd you are wanting to mount is rockridge format?
have you tried simply:
mount -o cdcase /dev/dsk/c2t2d0 /SD_CDROM

Re: pfs_mount error
Step 2 : Ensure the /etc/pfs_fstab file contains the following entry
/dev/dsk/cxtxdx /cdrom pfs-rrip xlat=unix 0 0
x = this is machine dependent in your case c1t2d0
Step 3 :Ensure the CDROM is loaded
Step 4 :enter the following commands
# Nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
# nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &
Step 5 :mount the cd
# pfs_mount
?o xlat=unix /dev/rdsk/cxtxdx /cdrom
