Subject: Re: autofs {3, 4, 5} and bind mounts which point to other automount points
Date: 25 Aug 2006 09:18:00 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3239342301.18668365@mail.q7.com> (raw)
The ability to have automount point to automount is something I use heavily as well. Otherwise I end up with many hundreds of nfs mounts on the server at a time. having hundreds of bind mounts on the client is preferrable. The old sun method of doing this was:
host:/path/name:dir
which would mount host:/path/name and then symlink dir. Now we' d use bind/loopback mounts. But that syntax has been gone a long time.
It doesn't seem like threading should inherently cause a problem. Each request should be a new thread and wait for the underlying mount (which might be recursive) to finish.
