Hello linuxers!
I got a little problem on having a NFS automatically mounted after reboot. RHEL 5.8 box/NFSv3/NAS volume.
The fs simply doesn't mount after reboot. However, when the box comes up, if I input a "mount -a" the volume get mounted without problems.
It seems (at least to me) that the configuration is alright. Please, take a look:
- NFS Service
Code:
[root@mybox ~]# chkconfig --list nfs
nfs 0:no 1:no 2:yes 3:yes 4:yes 5:yes 6:no
[root@mybox ~]# chkconfig --list netfs
netfs 0:no 1:no 2:yes 3:yes 4:yes 5:yes 6:no
[root@mybox ~]#
- NFS version
Code:
[root@mybox ~]# nfsstat
Server rpc stats:

[root@mybox ~]#
- /etc/fstab (I can't put my real ip here, sorry)
Code:
[root@mybox ~]# grep nfs /etc/fstab
200.X.X.240:/vol/vol_web2 /web nfs intr,soft,rw 0 0
[root@mybox ~]#
- Service sequence of initialization (nfs svces is initializing after network svc)
Code:
[root@mybox ~]# ls -l /etc/rc3.d/ | egrep -i "netfs|nfs|netw"
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Dez 16 18:27 K02NetworkManager -> ../init.d/NetworkManager

[root@mybox ~]#
- /etc/hosts has NAS' ip
Code:
[root@mybox ~]# grep nas /etc/hosts
200.X.X.240 nas01
[root@mybox ~]#
- There is a route to the NAS ip (and it works)
Code:
[root@mybox ~]# netstat -rnv | grep 200
200.X.X.240 10.X.X.33 255.255.255.255 UGH 0 0 0 eth3
[root@mybox ~]#
- Persistent route
Code:
[root@mybox ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth3
ADDRESS0=200.X.X.240
NETMASK0=255.255.255.255
GATEWAY0=10.X.X.33
[root@mybox ~]#
At this time, as a workaround, i've added "mount -a" to /etc/rc.local, and, at least, the nfs is mounting after reboot. However, it takes about 3~4 min to mount (checked with "uptime").
below are more info from dmesg:

Any hints?
Thank you very much
NFS doesn't mount after reboot on RHEL 5.8 box/NFSv3.
