On remote machine, use this script:

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


Then the nfs export might work and you can access it via the network.

That worked on local system and cd is mounted but error on remote mount:

Hi,
Did you pfs_umount the cd before the exportfs?


All the best
Victor

[Janet Parker_1]

NO when should I do this???

[Victor BERRIDGE]

Remotely mounting PFS format file system (e.g. Oracle 8.1.5 Cdrom):

ON THE SERVER SIDE:

a. create /etc/exports with: /cdrom -ro
b. /usr/sbin/exportfs -av
WARNING!!! before exportfs you have to pfs_umount the cd and mount it again after the exportfs command
c. nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
d. nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &
NOTE: use ( #ioscan -funC disk ) to find the device name.
e. add the filesystem to /etc/pfs_fstab as follows : /dev/dsk/c0t2d0 /cdrom pfs-iso9660 ro,suid 0 0
f. add the filesystem to /etc/pfs_exports as follows : /cdrom -ro
g. pfs_exportfs -a
h. pfs_mount /cdrom

ON THE CLIENT SIDE :

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

Note: do not need to do this if entered in /etc/pfs_fstab , # pfs_mount /test
d. pfs_mount -o xlat=unix remotesystemA:/cdrom /test

Note: to unmount use : # pfs_umount /test


Forgot where the doc came from at HP...
All the best
Victor
