but if give

Hiya,

- check /etc/rc.log for mounting errors during startup.
- when the FS is mounted (manually), check the output of "mount -p" (without the quotes). Make sure the filesystem type is correct.

Let us know what you find :)

Cheers

from the manpage of mount_vxfs:

NOTE: The datainlog option is available only
with the HP OnLineJFS product.

Do you have OnlineJFS ?

Anyway, I suggest you give it a go with "nodatainlog" instead ;-)

Let us know what happens.

It may be that the 'largefiles' option you have specified in /etc/fstab does NOT match how the filesystem was created. If you did not specify largefiles when you created the filesystem then this is the problem.

To check the filesystem do:

# fsadm /temp

You should get output of either 'largefiles' or 'nolargefiles'. If you see 'nolargefiles' then that is your problem. You either need to remove 'largefiles' from /etc/fstab, or make the filesystem largefiles capable.

If you have online JFS you can do the following:

# fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /temp

Now your filesystem should mount correctly when the machine is rebooted.

True, didn't think of that.. *slaps self*

[James George_1]

It looks like you didn't do the
# fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /mountpoint .

If you mention largefiles in the fstab file, then you should do this, other wise the FS will not come up after reboot.

Thanks for the help,

basically it was not largefiles.
