I have a 220 with 4.0.3 and 37 quoted trees. These mount fine on all our machines (solaris, aix, linux, ultrix, digital unix), except on sgi's with IRIX 6.2 or higher, regardless of model. On 5.2 or 5.3, there is no problem at all.

Upon doing 'mount -a' i get the following errors:

mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u37 already mounted mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u36 already mounted mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u35 already mounted mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u20 already mounted chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u34 mounted on /mn/chatelier/u34 chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u33 mounted on /mn/chatelier/u33 chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u32 mounted on /mn/chatelier/u32 mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u30 server not responding: Timed out mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u31 server not responding: Timed out mount: giving up on: /mn/chatelier/u31 mount: giving up on: /mn/chatelier/u30 mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u29 server not responding: Timed out mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u28 server not responding: Timed out mount: giving up on: /mn/chatelier/u29 mount: giving up on: /mn/chatelier/u28 mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u27 server not responding: Timed out mount: giving up on: /mn/chatelier/u27 mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u26 server not responding: Timed out mount: giving up on: /mn/chatelier/u26 mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u25 server not responding: Timed out mount: giving up on: /mn/chatelier/u25 mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u24 server not responding: Timed out mount: giving up on: /mn/chatelier/u24 mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u23 server not responding: Timed out mount: giving up on: /mn/chatelier/u23 mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u22 server not responding: Timed out mount: giving up on: /mn/chatelier/u22 mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u21 server not responding: Timed out mount: giving up on: /mn/chatelier/u21 mount: chatelier:/mn/chatelier/u19 server not responding: Timed out mount: giving up on: /mn/chatelier/u19

As you can see, the sgi will mount some trees and time out on the rest. Each time I mount -av some more trees will mount, and the rest will time out.

Has anyone else seen this?
