nfs(NADM)


nfs -- NFS start/stop script

Syntax

/etc/nfs start

/etc/nfs stop

Description

The /etc/nfs command is used to start or stop the NFS software. NFS will start automatically at system startup time if /etc/nfs is linked to /etc/rc2.d/Sname Similarly, NFS will stop automatically at system shutdown time if /etc/nfs is linked to /etc/rc0.d/Kname. See rc0(ADM) and rc2(ADM) for further information.

The /etc/nfs command starts the server daemons when file systems that should be exported are in /etc/exports. These server daemons are mountd(NADM), nfsd(NADM), and pcnfsd(NADM). The client daemon biod(NADM) is always started. If the /etc/auto.master file exists, automount(NADM) is also started. When the NLM service is installed, /etc/nfs starts the lockd(NADM) and statd(NADM) daemons.
