Hi,

I have a problem with a NFS/autofs-mounted-filesystem on Linux-2.0.34.
Last night an NFS-Server (debye) went down due to power failure, but the
client (pauli) stayed up (due to UPS). This morning I am not able to umount
this NFS-filesystem. The message I get is a little bit strange:

root@pauli:~ # umount /usr/soft/softbk
umount: debye:/softbackup: not mounted
umount: /usr/soft/softbk: device is busy

According to /proc/mounts it is mounted:

root@pauli:~ # cat /proc/mounts | grep debye
debye:/softbackup /usr/soft/softbk nfs rw,nosuid,rsize=4096,wsize=8192,soft,intr,addr=debye 0 0

This is the entry in the auto.soft-Map, I use to mount:

softbk -nosuid,intr,soft,rsize=4096,wsize=8192 debye:/softbackup

The filesystem is accessible.

Does anyone know, what's going wrong?

Cheers,

Bernd
