[Thana]

Hi
I try to mount cdrom. It show me very strange.
-----------------------------------
Before mount

drwxrwxrwx 2 root sys 96 Aug 18 2004 cdrom

mount /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom

After mount
dr-xr-xr-x 1 -1 -1 2048 Jun 11 2002 cdrom

When I try to read cdrom. It show strange list of file as followed.

dr-xr-xr-x 1 -1 -1 2048 Jun 11 2002 DOC
-r-xr-xr-x 1 -1 -1 5334 Jun 11 2002 INDEX.HTM;1

** file name with extension html show as HTM;1.

Evenif I try to mount with command.

mount -F cdfs /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom

It still got same result.

How can I do. CD-rom is oracle install for HP-UX

Hi there.
Did you try pfsmount ? Described somewhere in Oracle Documentation.
There is also a patch to avoid this, but i cannot remember the number.
Perhaps somebody else has still got it.

Hi Thana,

I also dont know what the patch is but if you are in a hurry follow this steps.


#vi /etc/fstab

input the ff.

/dev/dsk/ /CDROM pfs-rrip xlat=unix 1 0

at the command line enter

#nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
#nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &

mount the CDROM

#/usr/sbin/pfs_mount /CDROM

to unmount

#/usr/sbin/pfs_umount /CDROM

Regards,
Paul

hi,

try this:

1. create file, /etc/pfs_fstab
2. add entry to /etc/pfs_fstab
# "device name" /cdrom pfs-rrip xlat=unix 0 0
3. run pfs daemon at the background
# nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
# nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &
4. start nfs server
# /sbin/init.d/nfs.server start
make sure NFS_CLIENT and NFS_SERVER=1 in /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf
5. mount and unmount file system
# pfs_mount /cdrom
# pfs_umount /cdrom

regards.

Hi Thana,

Here's the patches that you need to mount a rock ridge cdrom format

PHCO_25841
PHKL_26269
PHKL_32035

after installing these patches you can mount your cdrom using this command

# mount -F cdfs -o rr /dev/dsk/c#t#d# /CDROM

Paul

[Paul_481]

By the way, these patches are for kernel so you need to reboot your system.

Any idea? If I can not mount. I will patch system. But now I will try firs

hi,

if you do not want to apply the patch which will need a reboot to kick into effect. follow the steps i have given cause i used it to mount the Oracle 9i CD.

u have to start NFS in order to pfs_mount the CD.

Hi Thana,

My mistake, you should create /etc/pfs_fstab

#vi /etc/pfs_fstab

and add

/dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /CDROM pfs-rrip xlat=unix 1 0

then run the daemon and mount/umount the filesystem

#nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
#nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &

#/usr/sbin/pfs_mount /CDROM
#/usr/sbin/pfs_umount /CDROM

Paul

PHKL_26450
PHCO_26449
PHKL_28060

Hi,

have you tried if you already have the RockRidge option?
mount -F cdfs -o rr,ro,cdcase /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom

And very much times I've read the advice here in the forum NOT to use pfs_mount.
It's not very stable. You can also read it at Merijn's site. The link you got above.

The RockRidge option works good and is simple to use.

This curcumstnace occured because of
many pfsd daemon run many time and can not kill. Then before mount rock-ridge cd-rom must to check daemon first.
My senior describe me that each daemon make very high I/O load. Then it just reboot and mount again no need to patch.
