Hi! I am using the following command to mount a folder of my Windows 7 computer to a cluster of several Linux machines
mount -t cifs //windows7-computer/folder-to-mount /home/sonia/mnt-folder -o user=windows_user,pass=windows_password,uid=linux_user,gid=linux_group I need to mount the "folder-to-mount" about 40-50 times simultaneously to different "mnt-folders". But I have found that I cannot do this. It seems that there is a kind of limit that only allows me to mount the "folder-to-mount" about 12-14 times simultaneously. Why is this happening? Any hints on how to solve this problem? The error message that I get is the following, mount error(5): Input/output error Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) cifs.ko is the following filename: cifs.ko version: 1.61 description: VFS to access servers complying with the SNIA CIFS Specification e.g. Samba and Windows license: GPL author: Steve French <[email protected]> srcversion: 6EEAB9465787AE0C514101E depends: vermagic: 2.6.32-24-server SMP mod_unload modversions parm: CIFSMaxBufSize:Network buffer size (not including header).
