create a mondoarchive on an automounted nfs share without mounting first

[Anthony Cicone]

I want to use the "-n" option with mondoarchive, to write to an automounted nfs share. For instance, we have have a NAS appliance called pisrh11, which has space carved up for nfs shares. On our servers, we are using the automounter, which automatically maps shares on pishr11, based on entries in the /etc/auto_* files.

Here would be the automount file for application installed locally:

# more /etc/auto_apps TRPperf -rw localhost:/export/appl/pkgs/& pb -rw localhost:/opt/& # PowerBroker java -rw localhost:/export/appl/pkgs/& AppManager -rw localhost:/export/appl/pkgs/AppManager/v8

Here is the master automount file which points to some NIS maps:

# more /etc/auto_master /trprmt/logs yp:auto.trprmt /nfs yp:auto.nfs /apps /etc/auto_apps

And here is the NIS entry for the mondoarchive shares:

# ypcat auto.nfs|grep Linux -soft,bg,rw pishr:/images_Linux/trp -soft,bg,rw pishr11:/images_Linux/trp

Here is the share mounted: # pwd /root (piadm41)# cd /nfs/LinuxImages (piadm41)# pwd /nfs/LinuxImages (piadm41)# df -k . Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on pishr:/images_Linux/trp

103257600 3244608 100012992 4% /nfs/LinuxImages

(piadm41)# mount|grep Linux pishr:/images_Linux/trp on /nfs/LinuxImages type nfs (rw,soft,addr=10.22.214.26)

Thanks again.
