Hi there,
I hope this is the right place to post a issue we experience with autofs
on Linux Redhat 4.6.
We are using indirect mount to mount different directories from the same
host at different depth level.
Each directory is a separate file system on the file server. File
server is a Sun Solaris 8.
Here my auto.master entry:
cat auto.master:
/data/gqssan1 /etc/auto.gqssan1 --ghost --timeout=60
I assume that I can specify a relative path name as "key" within my
mapfile:
key
For indirect mounts this is the part of the pathname between the
mount-
point and the path into the filesystem mounted. Usually you can
think
about the key as a subdirectory name below the mountpoint.
here is my mapfile entry:
cat auto.gqssan1
1 -rw,soft,intr stargeo:/data/gqssan1/1
...
30 -rw,soft,intr stargeo:/data/gqssan1/30
GEOS/1 -rw,soft,intr stargeo:/data/gqssan1/GEOS/1
GEOS/2 -rw,soft,intr stargeo:/data/gqssan1/GEOS/2
GEOS/3 -rw,soft,intr stargeo:/data/gqssan1/GEOS/3
GEOS/4 -rw,soft,intr stargeo:/data/gqssan1/GEOS/4
At the very beginning everything seems to be fine. After about 10
minutes time, I see another mount point
with the same name within the very first one:
[r...@ensv16im gqssan1]# cd /data/gqssan1/GEOS/
[r...@ensv16im GEOS]# ls -tlr
total 0
dr-xr-xr-x 6 root root 0 Apr 8 00:03 GEOS
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Apr 8 00:03 4
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Apr 8 00:03 3
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Apr 8 00:03 2
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Apr 8 00:03 1
I cd to both mount points and I see my file system mounte twice.
[r...@ensv16im GEOS]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/vg00/rootvol 7.8G 3.3G 4.2G 44% /

stargeo:/data/gqssan1/GEOS/1
506G 149G 355G 30% /data/gqssan1/GEOS/GEOS/1
Am I correctly assuming that the "key" value may be a relative path as
well as a simple directory?
Please help.
