allowable number of mount points exceeded

[Navin_3]

I have extended the below filessystem. After extending when i try to mount it says the following error.

But when i mount the FS in another name it's getting mounted.

vxfs mount: /dev/vg-mynah/lv-views is already mounted, /viewstore_na is busy,
or allowable number of mount points exceeded

Can anybody tell me what is the exact problem

Thanks
Navin

Hi Navin,

Run "fuser /viewstore_na", to check the process that uses the mount point.

Kill the process if it is not necessary then try to remount.

I think you should check wih lsof, if there is some process that uses tht filesystem. Maybe some user that just idling there or executing something. That's why you can get the message "is busy".

The oter thing is that you already mounted another lvolume there, that's why you can get the message "already mounted" or "maximum mount points exceeded".

check with bdf if it's already mounted or with lsof if someone uses that directory.
