Hi Tejas,

One thing that I have had occasional success with is a lazy unmount - i.e. 
“unmount -l /gpfs01”.  Doesn’t help more of the time than it does help in my 
experience, but it’s one thing I try before bouncing a node.  HTHAL…

Hi all,

I cannot get the filesystem mounted again on few nodes.

[root@ ~]# /usr/lpp/mmfs/bin/mmmount gpfs01
Wed Jun 29 11:29:50 EDT 2016: mmmount: Mounting file systems ...
mount: /dev/gpfs01 already mounted or /gpfs01 busy
mmmount: Command failed. Examine previous error messages to determine cause.



Things I have tried and checked.



1. Checked /proc/mounts and /etc/mtab and lsof /dev/gpfs01 and both /dev/gpfs01 
and /gpfs01 are not seen anywhere.

2. Tried mmshutdown/mmstartup and it fails to unload mmfs modules. See below.

3. mmumount gpfs01 -f


A reboot of the client would probably fix it but as the client is used in 
production, this is not easy to do.


Are there any tricks/hacks to remount the filesystem again without rebooting 
the client.
