ONC+ Release Notes
What’s New in This Version of AutoFS
Chapter 110
• CIFS Client Support
AutoFS supports mounting and unmounting of the HP CIFS client filesystems.
• NFS loopback mount
By default, AutoFS uses the Local File Systems (LOFS) mounts for locally mounted
filesystems. AutoFS provides an option to allow loopback NFS mounts for the local mount.
Use this option in the High Availability NFS environments.
• Client-side Failover Support
AutoFS enables a mounted NFS read-only filesystem to transparently switch over to an
alternate server if the current server goes down.
