coolcommand how to add an automount in IBM AIX
Description To add an automount on an IBM AIX server: 1) Enable rc.nfs in /etc/inittab (remove colon in front of line if it exists) 2) Start NFS # startsrc -g nfs 3) Add the appropriate entries in /etc/auto_master. In my case I want to add a sub map called auto.atu which would automount under /batch/atu. Here are the contents of /etc/auto-master /etc/auto.atu /batch/atu 4) Create /etc/auto.atu data server1:/batch/atu/data NOTE: make sure server1 has exported /batch/atu to this server (use exportfs commands on server1) 5) Start automount # /usr/sbin/automount -m -v -f /etc/auto_master automount: Using automount master map as file /etc/auto_master automount: /batch/atu mounted automount: no unmounts 6) Verify # mount\|grep auto /etc/auto.atu /batch/atu autofs Jan 30 14:29 ignore # lssrc -a \| grep automount
Example /usr/sbin/automount -m -v -f /etc/auto_master
