Automount Problems

Hi All, I have a N4000 with HP-UX 11 that is mounting home directories from an Auspex NFS server Just today the mounts to this NFS server stopped responding. I am running /usr/lib/netsvc/fs/autofs/automountd on this HP N system and just can't figure out why it is hanging. Is there a way to restart the automounter or get it to stop hanging. I have several other HP N's that are just fine so it is not the Auspex. Any suggestions about automount would be much appreciated. Thanks. Mike

Re: Automount Problems

To stop the automount daemon, and all other NFS client processes, you can do an '/sbin/init.d/nfs.client stop'. This will also unmount any NFS filesystems you have mounted. If you have NFS, other than automounted home directories, you may not want to do this.

After stopping, you should probably look and see if the automount process is still there.

To restart do '/sbin/init.d/nfs.client start'
