Automounter issue

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Anyone seen this before?

I have a number of file systems nfs mounted onto clients running
various versions of CentOS (and Upstream), although mostly they are
v5.x flavors. =20

The server is a Network Appliance filer.

When the build process for this team runs, it sometimes dies because
it can't find files in the automounter tree; if the engineer checks,
he sometimes sees a problem, and sometimes doesn't; for example:

[pdbuild@build-c5u1: ~] ll /tools/vault/kernels
ls: /tools/vault/kernels: No such file or directory
[pdbuild@build-c5u1: ~] ll /tools/vault/kernels
total 152K
drwxr-xr-x  4 pdbuild everyone 4.0K Aug  7  2007 2.4.21-40.EL.CUSTOM.01smp/
drwxr-xr-x  7 pdbuild everyone 4.0K Jun 26  2007 2.6.16.33-1-xen/
drwxr-xr-x  7 pdbuild everyone 4.0K Aug  7  2007 2.6.16.33-xen/
drwxr-xr-x  4 pdbuild everyone 4.0K Jan  3  2008 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5/
drwxr-xr-x  4 pdbuild everyone 4.0K Feb 11  2008 2.6.18-53.1.6.el5/
drwxr-xr-x  4 pdbuild everyone 4.0K Nov 15  2007 2.6.18-53.el5/
drwxr-xr-x  4 pdbuild everyone 4.0K Sep 24  2007 2.6.18-8.el5/
drwxr-xr-x  7 pdbuild everyone 4.0K Oct 16  2007 2.6.18-xen/
[pdbuild@build-c5u1: ~] df  /tools/vault/kernels
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
nas02:/vol/tools/vault
                      779G  655G  124G  85% /tools/vault

Now I've seen this before where some processes don't wait for the automount=
er
to do its thing before continuing; they just report "fail" and move on
to the failure handling.

I'm guessing that I need some magic on the automounter configuration to
change this behavior, can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks for your time.
