I suspect that the nfs/client services are off-line at the time mountall runs. In a way, this is my fault. I fixed this for smbfs some time ago, and did not bother to fix nfs at the same time. If you compare the files: /lib/svc/method/nfs-client /lib/svc/method/smb-client you will see that the latter has a start method that runs mountall with a "ctrun" so that it does not interfere with exiting the start medhod function. That's the key: The nfs/client service will be "offline" (starting) until this start method returns. The work done in mountall does not need to be synchronous, so simply running that in the background (and not part of the service contract) is an easy way to fix it. File an issue, if you like. ( And perhaps fix it too! :) Thanks, Gordon _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
