NFS won't mount at boot

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

 



Hi,

This may have been asked before, But I can't seem to find the answer by
google, or my list archives;

I have many RHEL3 machines, each with three NFS mounts from a NAS device.
Each machine gets a few identical lines added to /etc/fstab, and they all
mount the network drives at boot, as expected.  On a batch of machines I am
building right now, (Same version of RHEL, same /etc/fstab,)  the NFS mounts
wont come up at boot, but a 'mount -a' anytime after boot brings the drives
up immediately.

I have the NAS device declared in /etc/hosts, and I reference it by name in
/etc/fstab.  /etc/nsswitch contains "hosts: files nis dns" too, yet this
still smells like a name resolution problem.  Have I missed anything?

I have vague recollections of a fix to this that involved changing
/etc/rc.d/S files, but I am at a loss to remember, or even locate such a
thing.  Maybe I remember incorrectly...?

Regards,

Gavin McDonald
