Solaris Common Messages and Troubleshooting Guide

Action

It has long been known that NFS mounted calendars are not supported in Solaris. Of the calendar can be corrupted when more than one person uses the calendar at the same time. If two rpc.cmsd daemons write to the callog file at the same time, the file becomes corrupt. However, two rpc.cmsd daemons could be run simultaneously through Solaris 2.5.1 even though this isn't a supported configuration.

With Solaris 2.6, this is no longer an option. rpc.cmsd does not allow the user to bring up a calendar that is NFS mounted and produces the error message above.
