    on my AIX servers

    an ideas on the filesystem stanza for /etc/filesystems?

    I'm familiar with NFS, but not with mounting a system i IFS directory on AIX - all help appreciated thank you.

    We NFS mount directories from one of our NAS devices. As long as the AIX system has permission or you can have the directory exported for use you shouldn't have any problem.

    Here is what ours looks like. msarnas resides on the NAS & I am mounting it on my AIX

    msarnas.abc.def.edu:/vol/msar2/msar 7130316800 983449888 87% 470 1% /msar
    On AIX the mount command to manually mount it:

    mount msarnas.abc.abcd.edu:/vol/msar2/msar /msar

    Here's the /etc/filesystems entry. Your options may vary.

    /msar:
    dev = "/vol/msar2/msar"
    vfs = nfs
    nodename = msarnas.abc.def.edu
    mount = true
    options = rw,bg,hard,intr,sec=sys
    account = false
    hope this helps
