/home not mounting automatically after reboot

[Patrick Wallek]

I am running HP-UX 11.00 32 bit on a B132L workstation with 192 MB of RAM.

Whenever I reboot this machine my /home logical volume does not automatically mount. If I log in as root and do a 'mount -a' after the reboot completes, the /home mounts fine and I can proceed normally.

Here is my /etc/fstab:

/dev/vg00/root / vxfs delaylog 0 1
/dev/vg00/stand /stand hfs defaults 0 1
/dev/vg00/opt /opt vxfs delaylog 0 2
/dev/vg00/var /var vxfs delaylog 0 2
/dev/vg00/tmp /tmp vxfs delaylog 0 2
/dev/vg00/usr /usr vxfs delaylog 0 2
/dev/vg00/home /home vxfs delaylog 0 3
/dev/vg01/testlv1 /testlv1 vxfs rw,suid,nolargefiles,delaylog,datainlog 0 2


Just today I tried changing the parameter to mount /home at run level 2 to run level 3, but still no luck.

Any suggestions?

Patrick,

You might want to go into SAM and verify that /home is set to mount the filesystem at reboot:

Disks and Filesystems->Filesystems

Select the filesystem and then modify. Hope this works for you.

I hadn't thought of checking that. Darn it. That should have been an obvious check.

Anyway....I have looked at sam for the /home file system and it is set to mount at every system boot.

Patrick:

Does /etc/rc.log show anything? Check near the top...in 10.20, mountall is done via /sbin/rc1.d/S100localmount . Please post that portion. Also: Do you have any quotas enabled? Lastly, does /var/adm/syslog.syslog have anything "interesting" about the disk hosting /home ?

[...in all, that's 3-questions for you...]

OK...Thanks to the last reply I figured out what was going on. When I checked my syslog I discovered that there was an automount failure message saying that /home couldn't be automounted becuase it was busy. I thought I had automount disabled. I didn't. I disabled automount in the /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf file and rebooted again. /home mounted as it should this time.

Thanks for the help.
