As Ryan says, mounting a good number of mounts quickly will cause a reserved port exhaustion. How bad the problem is depends partly on the patches applied to the version of mount in you distribution. The other way that this can arise is if you are not returning a multi-mount entry in the right order from autofs_local. The order is important due to possible nesting of mounts. The reserved port exhaustion problem lies in the RPC kernel subsystem. It's quite a difficult problem to solve. > Configured Mount Points: > ------------------------ > /usr/sbin/automount --timeout=3600 --debug /usr/local program > /usr/bin/autofs_local > > Active Mount Points: > -------------------- > /usr/sbin/automount --timeout=3600 --debug /usr/local program > /usr/bin/autofs_local > > ps -ef | grep automount > root 2175 1 0 09:38 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/automount > --timeout=3600 --debug /usr/local program /usr/bin/autofs_local > > > Problem > Automount fails to mount directories and application fail to run. > > Bugzilla ID That appears to be similar > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=128966 > > Jason Breitman > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS MESSAGE AND ANY ATTACHMENT MAY BE > PRIVILEGED, CONFIDENTIAL, PROPRIETARY OR OTHERWISE PROTECTED FROM DISCLOSURE. > If the reader of this message is not the intended recipient, you are hereby > notified that any dissemination, distribution, copying or use of this message > and any attachment is strictly prohibited.
