Oracle CD's over a network

[John van Zantvoort_1]

I'm trying (and failing) to mount an Oracle CD over a network.
I can get the cd mounted correctly (using pfs and such), I've filled in the /dev/pfs_exports and run pfs_exportfs have all the daemons running etc.etc. . Still nothing, Advice?

Hi there.
Did you setup the CDROM as NFS ?

No I'didn't enter them in the /etc/exports if that's what you mean, only /etc/pfs_exports.

ON the SERVER side:

create /etc/exports with: /cdrom -ro
/usr/sbin/exportfs -av
nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &

Now use ioscan -fnCdisk to find the device name
add the filesystem to /etc/pfs_fstab as follows: /dev/dsk/cxdxdx /cdrom pfs-iso9660 ro,suid 0 0
add the fs to /etc/pfs_exports as follows; /cdrom -ro
pfs-exportfs -a
pfs_mounr /cdrom

ON the CLIENT side:

nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &
add the filesystem to /etc/pfs_fstab as follows: :/cdrom /test pfs-nfs ro,hard,fg 0 0
