GFSA805E
(procname) client_host_or_ip_address attempts to mount to pathname for file system file_system_name_new. However, there are number client(s) already mounted to this path with file system file_system_name.

Explanation

An attempt to nfs mount to pathname for a file system file_system_name_new from a particular client client_host_or_ip_address failed because at least one mount point remained on the server side for that pathname mount path but for a different file system file_system_name. Usually this happens when nested file systems underneath the mount path have changed (attached or detached ) during server processing.

System action

NFS continues processing.

Operator response

Perform the following recovery actions:
  • Check all existing mount points on the server side with the following:
    F procname,LIST=MOUNTS  
  • Find all of the clients using the same mount path /pathname
  • Prevent any client from mounting to z/OS UNIX file systems with the F procname,FREEZE=ONHFS operator command
  • Inform the system administrator about the file system change and about the possibility of performing unmount on clients for /pathname on behalf of new mount from client_host_or_ip_address
  • After clients unmount the mount-points, verify again that there are no other clients accessing the /pathname with the F procname,LIST=MOUNTS operator command
  • If no other client is accessing the /pathname but the Server still shows them in F procname,LIST=MOUNTS report, use F procname,UNMOUNT='/hfs/ pathname' to remove any information on the server side about obsolete mount points
  • Enable clients to mount to z/OS UNIX file systems with F procname,FREEZE=OFFHFS

System programmer response

Contact clients to inform them about the file system change situation during new mount processing and a need to unmount the mount-points on all clients.
