Hi all,
Might be an FAQ but haven’t found anything yet.
I’ve use QNX 4.25 in the past. I’m trying QNX 6.1.
My home partition is on a Sun workstation with solaris 5.6.
I share my home partition to be mounted on QNX 4.25, Linux, etc…
and QNX 6.1. I was able to mount that partition (via fs-nfs2 and
mount). But the problem is that the speed is not acceptable.
It take a second or two to do a “ls”!!! Every commands from my
home partition are too slow. It’s not workable that way. I’ve
used the following command to mount the partition:
fs-nfs2
mount -t nfs rousseau:/export/home/fugazi /home/fugazi
Do you have any ideas to gain speed?
My linux and QNX4.25 mount that partition too and it’s fast.
The linux pc, sun workstation and QNX 6.1 pc are on the same hub!
Best regards,
Jean

It is quite possible that there is an issue with your network card/driver.
What driver are you using?

Adam,
I thought that the driver was ok since I was able to mount the
partition.
But you make my explore that aspect and I have found that the driver
wasen’t running. I start the enum-devices -v application and I’ve notice
the
following error:
Starting: mount -Tio-net -opci=0 /lib/dll/devn-speedo.o
mount: Can’t mount / (type io-net)
mount: Possible reason: No such device or address
I’ve try to mount do the mount manually but still got the
same error message.
I then kill io-net and restart:
io-net -ptcpio -pqnet &
mount -Tio-net -opci=0 /lib/dll/devn-speedo.o
netmanager&
inetd&
fs-nfs2
mount -t nfs rousseau:/export/home/fugazi /home/fugazi
And it works fine now!!! The speed is good. But I don’t understand why
the
boot script doesn’t work.
Thanks, you put me on the right track.

Jean

That is strange, seems that io-net isn’t running or available at the time
the mount occured (timing between when io-net is started and /dev/io-net is
available). Try adding a file /etc/rc.d/rc.local (shell script) and add the
lines to slay io-net and restart it with your driver - perhaps even add your
NFS mounting so it’s automatic.
Thanks, you put me on the right track.
No problem, glad to help.
