Managing MC/ServiceGuard NFS A.11.11.03 and A.11.23.02 (March 2004)

Installing and Configuring MC/ServiceGuard NFS
Before Creating an MC/ServiceGuard NFS Package
Chapter 232
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.
