iwserver mount point not determined

Hi all,

I've got this strange problem on TS 6.1 on Solaris 8. When I run:
(-d:/etc/init.d)% ./iw.server start
This is the output in iwserver.log.

any ideas?

cheers

Yikes -- you might want to call support on this one. I've had similar issues more than a few times in the past and it seems that the root cause is always something so obscure.

LOL. nice one :-)) that makes my day....

i'll give them a call.

Just for kicks, do a df -k

I have seen a process running in /iwmnt so it would nout unmount

You can try

umount -f /iwmnt
umount -f /.iwmnt

(do not know if you need both)

This certainly does not look good:

(-d:/)% umount -f /iwmnt
umount: warning: /iwmnt not in mnttab
umount: /iwmnt not mounted
(-d:/)% umount -f /.iwmnt
umount: warning: /.iwmnt not in mnttab
umount: /.iwmnt not mounted

Probably need to restart the box. Any chance of that ?

I see you have ClearCase on this box. How long have both been on the server ?

One more thing to try:

/usr/ucb/ps -wuax | grep iwmnt

That runs the old UCB version of PS which has a wide option and will show if the process is in a directory. There is a process running in iwmnt preventing it from umounting.

I thought there should be an entry in the mntab file for iwmnt so that you can use umount.

You may want to view the /etc/init.d/iwserver file and copy the umount command they use but add the -f (force) flag.

I'll try to restart the box on monday and will torture the sys-admins with that.

(-d:/)% /usr/ucb/ps -wuax | grep iwmnt
root 14960 0.1 0.1 1000 728 pts/5 S 18:43:42 0:00 grep iwmnt
(-d:/)%

I will also check the clearcase stuff. thanks

I do not have my Soliris server available, run this for me:

grep umount /etc/init.d/iw.server

marcussteiner

(-d:/)% grep umount /etc/init.d/iw.server
(-d:/)%

nipper

looks like that is in iwmount

do a grep umount on any file named iwmount in either /etc/init.d or $iwhome/private/bin

marcussteiner

i'm currently rebooting -play server- and will see what happens then

how would i do this?
do a grep umount on any file named iwmount in either /etc/init.d or $iwhome/private/bin

marcussteiner

i know i should not do this but the fu/%/%/)/)/(&%%§%§%$§ing box is back.

and ts is running.

thanks for the help
