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.
