While scanning a direct map, autofs has found an entry key without a prefixed /. Keys in direct maps must be full path names.
While scanning an indirect map, autofs has found an entry key that contains a /. Indirect map keys must be simple names—not path names.
The mount daemon on the server refuses to provide a file handle for server:pathname. Check the export table on the server.
Autofs was unable to create a mount point that was required for a mount. This problem most frequently occurs when you attempt to hierarchically mount all of a server's exported file systems. A required mount point can exist only in a file system that cannot be mounted, which means the file system cannot be exported. The mount point cannot be created because the exported parent file system is exported read-only.
Autofs has discovered an entry in an automount map that contains leading spaces. This problem is usually an indication of an improperly continued map entry. For example:
fake /blat frobz:/usr/frotz |
In this example, the warning is generated when autofs encounters the second line because the first line should be terminated with a backslash (\).
The required map cannot be located. This message is produced only when the -v option is used. Check the spelling and path name of the map name.
remount server:pathname on mountpoint: server not responding
Autofs has failed to remount a file system that it previously unmounted.
Autofs is attempting to mount over an existing mount point. This message means an internal error occurred in autofs (an anomaly).
