I have seen the following issue on several and current Redhat Linux distros. I'd like to understand the problem and avoid it. More importantly, I want to fix the problem on my current server.
As root, I created 5 directories under /mnt and mounted remote directories via NFS. All was well for weeks.
I added a new hard drive (/dev/sdb) and mounted it under /tmp to move files onto it. I umounted then remounted /dev/sdb1 in it's final location (/web.)
I then restarted the server and found the directory entries under /mnt were not visible and therefore, unable to be NFS mount points. The new drive mounted fine.
I dropped the server into Run Level 2 (from 3) and could see the five directories under /mnt.
This is driving me crazy, thus I am missing something. Can someone identify that something?
It has always worked fine for me, and I almost always run things at runlevel 3.
You should check:
chkconfig --list nfs
and see if it lists nfs as being on at runlevel 3.
Also post the contents of /etc/fstab.
