RE: [Retrieved]Re: [Oscar-users] Mounting NFS Filesystem - fails on Linux Boot.

Jeremy,   Thanks for the input.  I will try the “mount –a”.  Yes, you are right. I have Opteron servers with Broadcom GigE NIC.  At this point, I am manually mounting the NFS filesystem from the Master node.  /root# cexec  --all nfs_oscar:/home home   Edgar E.

Anyone else ever come up with something more elegant yet?         Jeremy At 03:26 PM 1/13/2004, Edgardo Evangelista wrote: I'm building a small cluster configuration and help will be appreciated.    The compute nodes have problem mounting the NFS Filesystem when booting on RH 9.0 - it gives me this error on the boot up screen:   "Mounting NFS filesystem:                  Mount: RPC: Remote System error - No route to host"   Once the compute nodes boot up, I could manually mount the NFS filesystem with no problem which is " mount nfs_oscar:/home /home".     Edgar E.
