Mounted sync or async ?

[R.O.]

Hi,

I want to know if a shared FS system in a RedHat linux box is mounted with the option sync or async, but with "mount -v" I cannot see it. How can I see it?

Regards,

[RAC_1]

cat /proc/mount
Look at /etc/mtab file.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

These files does not show this information.

Can you post the output of following commands??

cat /etc/mtab
cat /proc/mounts

Hi,

/dev/sc1 /mount1 ext3 rw 0 0

Both files show the same. This FS is not mounted at startup, by reading /etc/fstab (otherwise, it will show the option "sync" or "async"). This FS is mounted by cluster manager, and I´ve found a command to verify this:

# redhat-config-cluster-cmd --services

...
mount:
mountpoint = /mount1
fstype = ext3
options = rw,suid,dev,exec,auto,nouser,async
forceunmount = yes
...

Hi ,
default mounting is async, this information is not visible from mount -v (/proc/mounts)

if you are going to use sync option, sync info will be visible there

Ok, I will see it in /proc/mounts only if it is sync.
