subtype: error getting VxFS type, errno 2

[Ken Penland_1]

When I take any vxfs file system on my machine, do an unmount, and then a mount, I get the error:

subtype: error getting VxFS type, errno 2

however it DOES mount the file system. I tried creating a new file system via sam, making sure it was vxfs, and it does the same thing. Google isnt very helpful with this one. Anyone see this error before? running HPUX11.00

never mind, google didnt help, but of course, after I posted this message I searched the ITRC itself and found the answer. had to run:

mknod /dev/vxportal c 97 0x000000

to recreate the vxportal file.
