NFS server ... not responding still trying

[khalidaaa]

Hi Gurus,

I'm really in need of help for that one

I have an directory on mainframe that i need to mount to my machine but the following is happening

# mount mainframe:/cdb.prod.mf.data /cdb/prod_mf_data   
NFS server mainframe not responding still trying

I managed to mount it sucessfully after rebooting the machine but because this link is a node in a cluster so i tried to failover the cluster to the second node and return back to this node but discovered that i couldn't mount this directory again

I think while failing over to the other node the ip address of the ethernet (en1) has be replaced with the boot address and when i fallover the nfs got confused or something

I tried stopping nfs and starting it again but with no use

this directory is mounted on the second node with no problems!!

any help will be appreciated

Regards,
Khalid
