Clients that are NFS connected to Server

[hfaix]

Does anyone know of a way to determine (from an AIX 5.3 NFS Server) if any hosts are NFS mounted to the server.

I have searched many threads on here, and this is the closest one I've gotten to a solution. thread52-1139757.

netstat -an |grep 2049 works great....assuming a connection has been recently established. After a few minutes of inactivity, the netstat doesn't show the connect any more.

showmount -d is ok for most cases, but this happens to be a NIM server so most of the entries that show up with showmount -d are wrong.

I would like to try the lsof command, but I haven't figured out the syntax yet.

Any help would be great.

Thanks for the reply.

That's the info I'm looking for. I was hoping to find a way to do it from a script (tough to do with a trace).

I thought I'd post what I ended up doing. I wrote a piece of coded to ssh each client and check for "my" hostname.

# Used to see if any systems are mounted to me.
hostfile=/export/custom/ssh/inputs/custom

if [[ -s $hostfile ]]
then
   for host in $(cat $hostfile)
   do
     if ( ssh $host df | grep -q "$(hostname):" )
     then
         echo $host "Connected"
     else
         echo $host "Not connected"
     fi
    done
fi

showmount -a

lsof ?

showmount -a is completely wrong on this particular system. It's a NIM server that I do NFS mksysb's to. All sorts of stuff reported with this command.

do you have a suggested lsof command...if so that would be great? I didn't find any flags that pertained to this.
