NAME
cm sethardmount
for the specified or current fileset.
SYNOPSIS
cm sethardmount [-path {file|dir}] [-state {on/off}] [-help]
Hard mount semantics have the same meanings as NFS hard mount
semantics. Operations on hard mounted filesets wait for completion by the
server. They do not timeout and return an ETIMEDOUT error if the server is
not available. Instead, they wait until the server is back online and the
interrupted operation has completed. Thus, if a server goes down during a
long (that is, over night) series of operations, the programs complete when
the server comes back online, rather than needing to be restarted.
OPTIONS
-path {file | dir}
Names a file or directory from each fileset whose hard mount status
information is to be changed. If this option is omitted, the status is changed
for the fileset containing the current working directory.
-state
Specifies whether hard mount semantics for the indicated filesets are
provided by the Cache Manager. Specify on with this option to provide hard
mount semantics for the indicated filesets; specify off with this option to
disable hard mount semantics for the indicated filesets. If this option is
omitted, hard mount semantics are provided for the indicated filesets (the
command has no effect if hard mount semantics were already being
provided)
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options specified
with option are ignored.
