Config: Two AS8200 cluster, TU 4.0G, ASE 1.6
Situation: Systems have been up since early September. I have hundreds of
automounted directories most of which are on the ASE disk services but
there are about 200 directories on other nodes. Up 'till now all
automounts have been successful.
Problem: This week automounters on BOTH the cluster nodes have begun
failing to mount the directories on one particular node. Every other
automounted directory is successful. I have "kill -hup"ed each automountd
process on both systems to re-initialize them. I can ping the target node
fine. I can even manually mount the directories one at a time and access
all the files that are supposed to be there.
Question: Why would manual mounts succeed when automounts fail? Of
course, neither set of nodes has been changed in the last week --
supposedly!
