    dear aix gurus,
    we hv 2 servers that are having nfs mount points that mounting each other. the setup is like this:
    server A
    local mount point = /nfsA
    export nfs to server B

    server B
    local mount point = /nfsB
    export nfs to server B

    how can we know if its auto mount upon server restart or not? coz we need to ensure the local mount point is ready at the server before export nfs to server B? if its trying to mount the nfs, but during then the local mount point is not mounted yet afraid it will use server resource.

    the reason i'm curious is we would like to restart both servers. hope to hear from you. thank you

    You have to change the /etc/filesystems. Here you can say automount the filesystems NFS.

    You can use the output for lsfs, check the column "Auto", if it is yes, then it is automount by system.
