I exported file system on AIX 5.2 server. When I tried to mount it on another AIX server, it mounted successfully, but when I tried mount on Solaris 8 or RedHat Linux servers, but it failed.
I have message on Solaris 8 system:

# mount -F nfs p630:/soft /mnt
nfs mount: p630:/softSegmentation Fault (core dumped)

When I tried to mount on Solaris system NFS from another Solaris system that NFS mounted also successfully, and if I mount Solaris NFS on AIX, it also mounted successfully.

Where is problem - on AIX or on Solaris?
How can I solve it?

Thank you
 
What filesystem do you use on your AIX ?
You need to specific the filesystem to mount on your Solaris.And man mount to get more information.
You can mount on your solaris as ext2 or ext3 for linux.
Good Luck....:)
 
I use filesystem jfs2.
But what is specific options for mount?
 

How did you export the AIX filesystem?
Go to 'smitty nfs' and have a look at options like 'secure' and 'hosts allowed access'.

The underlying filesystem doesn't matter.

I do not use any secure options.
Could you tell me size of read buffer and write buffer for AIX NFS?

Thank you
 
Thank you all for your help. I have solved problem.
It was necessarily to add in /etc/hosts on AIX server record about Solaris system.
