device busy

Hi guys i am trying to mount a cdrom but it says
/dev/dsk/c1t2d0: device busy.

Secondly, i wanted to ask that can u install veritas cluster server on an hpux box.
Thanks.

Re: device busy

Any processes using that filesystem?

fuser -u /mount_point
fuser -u /dev/dsk/c1t2d0

ps -ef | grep pid (dropping the o from the pids) and see what they are. And kill them.

Otherwise you can run the fuser -k command to have it kill it. But I tend to like to see what is really holding it up.

Re: device busy

make sure that you are mounting correct device.

ioscan -fn |grep -i "DVD"

yes. You can install Veritas Cluster Server on HP-UX server. Make sure that you have correct software.

Re: device busy

Hi khilari,

Are you cd into the /cdrom directory?
You should be able to use the fuser command.

Re: device busy

try with fuser -cu /dev/dsk/c1t2d0

do you have lsof installed on the server? If so, you check with lsof command.

lsof /dev/dsk/c1t2d0

Re: device busy

What is your pwd? You're not sitting in the /cdrom directory when you try to mount the cd are you?

Re: device busy

long shot.

HPUX 11.0 with a TEAC cdrom drive?

# ioscan -fnCdisk

if so, check if patch PHKL_24282 is installed.
