Thanks for the suggestions so far. I have found a little more out. The mount on hephaistos is retaining the ownership of the mount point from poseidon.
When the mount point was created on poseidon it had permissions:
drwxr-xr-x 3 oracle dba 512 Sep 30 13:55 devo_data1


Once the drive is mounted it has permissions:
drwxr-xr-x   3 root     root         512 Sep 30 13:55 devo_data1

If I then "chown oracle:dba /devo_data1" (on poseidon) AFTER the disk has been mounted, when it is NFS mounted on hephaistos it retains the oracle:dba ownership.

So now the question becomes, how do I do the initial mount on poseidon so that it does NOT change ownership to root:root? This is what exists in the /etc/vfstab on poseidon for it:
/dev/dsk/c0t9d0s7 /dev/rdsk/c0t9d0s7 /devo_data1 ufs 2 yes -


There doesn't seem to be anything in the mount and mount_ufs man pages that indicate being able to force the ownership of the mount point. So is there some way I can use chmod to set the ownership bits etc on the mount point before it is mounted, such that when the drive is mounted there the original ownership is retained?

(The oracle user and dba group exist on both machines with the same uid/gid)

Thanks

Hi,

I am trying to nfs mount a drive b/w two solaris 2.6 machines, but it keeps mounting as owned by root, group root. How can I change this?

Here is what I have configured so far:

poseidon (has the drive physically in it)
/etc/dfstab :
share -F nfs -o rw=hephaistos -d "data1" /devo_data1

hephaistos (where i want the drive mounted)
/etc/vfstab:
poseidon:/devo_data1    -       /u03    nfs     -       yes     rw,hard

on hephaistos the /u03 directory was originally created as:
drwxr-xr-x   2 oracle   dba          512 Sep 30  13:55 u03

after the directory is mounted:
drwxr-xr-x   3 root     root         512 Sep 30 14:07 u03

I need the directory to be writeable by the oracle user, how do I achieve this?

Thanks

Chris
