Issue

• Problem access client (/etc/exports)
• cluster node share the same repository to certain servers (/etc/exports).

node1l :
[root@node1l prd]# exportfs
/data/prd       node1h
/data/prd       node2h
/data/prd       node11b
/data/prd       test
/data/ip1       node1h

node2l :
[root@node2l ~]# exportfs
/data/prd       node1h
/data/prd       node2h
/data/prd       test
/data/ip1       node1h

node3l :
[root@node3l prd]# exportfs
/data/prd       node1h
/data/prd       node2h
/data/prd       node11b
/data/prd       test
/data/ip1       node1h

Prdbdd4l :
[root@prdbdd4l /]# exportfs
/data/prd       node1h
/data/prd       node2h
/data/prd       test
/data/ip1       node1h

Clients are all HPUX that are using /etc/auto.direct.

When using the testing machine ‘test’ with following configuration that has some issues

pamtsth:/ > more /etc/auto.direct
/bddexport      -soft   node1l,node2l,node3l,node4l:/data/prd

After investigations, I noted that the following configuration is working.

test:/ > more /etc/auto.direct
/bddexport      -soft   node1l:/data/prd

test:/ > more /etc/auto.direct
/bddexport      -soft   node4l:/data/prd

But there is an access issue on the level of node2l, node4l – ‘permission denied’.
