[Sunhelp] Curious NFS mounting problem

[Shawn C Lander]

I've got two Solaris 2.6 machines.  I'm NFS mounting some disks from
machine1 to machine2.

The following is in machine1's /etc/dfs/dfstab

share -F nfs -o rw=machine2 /export/machine1


The following is in machine2's /etc/vfstab:

machine1:/export/machine1 - /mnt/machine1 nfs - yes rw,nosuid,hard,bg


If I take machine1 down for any reason and then bring it back up
machine2 complains of stale NFS on /mnt/machine1.  I thought that
with the options I was using it would remount it fine.  In order to
get the disk to mount again I have to umount and mount the filesystem
manually.

What am I missing?  Any suggestions on changing options or whatnot in
order to get the filesystem to remount automatically on machine2 if
machine1 goes down and comes back up?
