Not sure, perhaps it was just my unfamiliarity with the features of autofs, but when I tried setting up a map file I was unable to get it to work as it never mounted the filesystem. I tried following the example in the auto_master man page in the "INDIRECT VERSUS DIRECT MAPS" section and created a auto_fsmount file with this in it: /work -intr,nfsv4 10.1.132.8:/stor/work and added this to the auto_master file: /- auto_fsmount Created the /work directory but couldn't get it to actually mount the filesystem. Removing all of those changes and creating this symlink instead: lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 19 Mar 8 12:19 work -> net/vader/stor/work worked and it automatically mounted the filesystem on my first access: vader:/stor/work 30T 19G 30T 0% /net/vader/stor/work So perhaps documenting how to migrate drom amd to autofs, retaining the same operational characteristics would be a help for those of us coming from that environment.
