Friday I extend /tmp by 50mb.
I was trying to install some software and I needed a little more space.
All seemed to be well then.
This morning I get this error "bdf: Cannot open /etc/mnttab: Permission denied" I checked the rights on /etc/mnttab and it is rw-r-r. I looked at the data in the mnttab and seems to be ok. It still has the /CDROM mounted that I mounted using 'pfs_mount /CDROM'. This will not unmount telling me the NFS is not restopnding.
syslog shows the nfs errors this morning from trying to 'pfs_umnount /CDROM'.
And some of these when using SAM to look at the file system.
Any ideas?
Marty

Re: Error: "bdf: Cannot open /etc/mnttab: Permission denied"
If you did a PFS-style mount, and now cannot unmount and/or have problems running 'bdf', I'd plan a reboot very soon. Things (performance) are probably only going to deteriorate.
You don't offer the HP-UX release that you are running. There have been patches to obviate the need to do PFS-style mounts for RockRidge formatted CDs for a long time unless you are running 10.20.
If you are on an 11.x system, I would search the Patch Database for the requisite patches (3); install them and save yourself future grief.
Regards!

Re: Error: "bdf: Cannot open /etc/mnttab: Permission denied"
This server is 11.0 We cand upgrade it right now. I want to get off 11.0 and up to 11.whatever.
So for now it may just be a reboot.
Question, Reboot should clean this up with out hitches? I know that any reboot can show up things.
I would like to wait until thew weekend because the intire network will be down. We need to redo all of of our IP addresses. And it there is a problem with that and there will be. I will have time to finish up my issue.

Thanks for all your help.
