[SOLVED] How to ensure mount point is mounted correctly ?

Hi ALL

I need to know particular mount point mounted or not before send data to that mount point.

Are there any commands
i used this command.
mount -t nfs 172.16.102.50:/root/ESSR_share /root/shared_storage/pc50 -o rw,hard,intr

but it take long time (when machine(172.16.102.50) is not available)

Thank You !

You might test for the existence of a particular directory on the mounted disk, e.g.

Code:

[[ -d /root/shared_storage/pc50/path/to/dir ]] || exit 1

Can you not parse the output of the mount command? or maybe /proc/mounts

hello Friend..
You are mounting an NFS share. Obviously it will not respond to mount command if the NFS Server(in this case 172.16.102.50) is not available.

To Verify there are many ways.
mount |grep '/root/shared_storage/pc50'

This should give you a result.

df -hP /root/shared_storage/pc50 -- this should point to your NFS filesystem, not the root filesystem.
