Unable to mount cdrom, device busy
Different cd's/dvd's have been tried including HPUX install dvd's.
Checked BDF and cdrom is not mounted.
Below is a few other things i've checked.
disk 0 0/0/3/0.0.0.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE TEAC DV-28E-C
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0
# / : # mount -F cdfs /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0: Device busy
# / : # fuser /dev/dsk/c0t0d0
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0:
# / : # diskinfo -v /dev/dsk/c0t0d0
diskinfo: can't open /dev/dsk/c0t0d0: Device busy
# / : # ls -ltr
drwxrwxrwx 2 root sys 96 Mar 9 2005 cdrom
Created a new directory /cdrom1 and tried to mount that with no success
Checked /etc/mnttab and no entries found
# /dev/dsk : # ls -ltr
total 0
brw-r----- 1 bin sys 31 0x000000 Mar 9 2005 c0t0d0
mayday1: /dev/rdsk : # ls -ltr
total 0
crw-r----- 1 bin sys 188 0x000000 Mar 9 2005 c0t0d0
Tried psf_mount on the offchance.
# /usr/sbin/pfs_mount -t rrip -o xlat=unix /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom
pfs_mountd.rpc: Can't open /dev/dsk/c0t0d0: Device busy
/usr/sbin/pfs_mount: /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 on /cdrom: open failed: Device busy
/usr/sbin/pfs_mount: giving up on /cdrom
Have seen this in the past on PA_RISC systems and it required a patch update, has anyone come across the same issue on itanium servers.
Or is it just something silly i'm missing :-)
Cheers
George

Try "diskinfo -v /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0" (you need to give the char device name"

Re: Unable to mount cdrom, device busy
There is no longer a need to use pfs_mount
Try: ioscan -fnC disk
Try using all the device names with diskinfo until you get an answer.

Re: Unable to mount cdrom, device busy
I had a similar problem on an Itanium server, it was because my EMC powerpath was blocking me to use the device file. If you have EMC powerpath, please check. Else ignore this.
Good luck

Re: Unable to mount cdrom, device busy
It doesnt have emc powerpath, but will have a look to see if anything else could be blocking the device file. Allthough i'm not sure how to do this.
