Installing and Configuring Serviceguard NFS
Before Creating a Serviceguard NFS Package
mount -o nointr relocatable_ip:/usr/src /usr/src
where relocatable_ip is the IP address of the package, and /usr/src represents the mount points of the server and the client, respectively.
Without the nointr option, if an interrupt (or a SIGKILL, SIGHUP, SIGINT, SIGQUIT, SIGTERM, or SIGALRM signal) is sent to an executable while the NFS server is failing over, NFS will terminate the executable. This is a standard feature of NFS that allows interrupts such as ˆC to kill a “hung” client executable if the NFS server is down. Specifying the nointr option resolves this problem. See the mount_nfs(1M) man page for more information.
