problem with nfs mount

[eran maor]

Seems that the 'mount -p' on HP-UX 11.0, with NFSv3 mounted disks, produce
invalid results, i.e. - it adds the string ",NFSv3" which is invalid:

itsth104 [614]#umount /mnt
itsth104 [615]#mount infs001:/disk01/sysmgr /mnt
itsth104 [616]# mount -p | grep nfs >> /etc/fstab
itsth104 [617]#umount /mnt
itsth104 [618]#mount /mnt
nfs mount: illegal file system specific option: NFSv3

usage: mount [-l][-v|-p]
mount [-F FStype][-eQ] -a
mount [-F FStype][-eQrV][-o specific_options]
{ special | directory }
mount [-F FStype][-eQrV][-o specific_options]
special directory

Eran,

This is a known bug recently reported to HP, which is Service Request #8606194648 Change Reqest #JAGad63856, reported against 11.0 and 11i. The workaround for now, is to edit the /etc/fstab as you noted.
