NFS filesystems not mounting at boot - can mount manually

NFS filesystems not mounting at boot - can mount manually

Good Afternoon,

I have a lab of Dells running RHEL4u4. All but one NFS file systems are
not mounting automatically at boot. If I manually issue command "mount -a" the
offending file systems mount with no problems.

Contents of /etc/fstab:
everest:/scratch        /scratch nfs   soft,bg     0  0
yoda:/data/yoda/a         /data/yoda/a         nfs     soft,bg
yoda:/data/yoda/b         /data/yoda/b         nfs     soft,bg


Result of df -k command:
[root@(protected) log]# df -k
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
                      74730664   6816748  64117744  10% /
/dev/sdb1               101086     12734     83133  14% /boot
none                    516592         0    516592   0% /dev/shm
everest:/scratch      17413280  12970784   4268384  76% /scratch

Relevent lines from /var/log/messages:
Nov 27 15:08:23 cslab2 network: Bringing up interface eth0:  succeeded
Nov 27 15:08:30 cslab2 mount: mount: backgrounding "everest:/scratch"

Nov 27 15:08:36 cslab2 netfs: Mounting NFS filesystems:  succeeded
Nov 27 15:08:36 cslab2 netfs: Mounting other filesystems:  succeeded
Nov 27 15:08:36 cslab2 kernel: i2c /dev entries driver


Both yoda and everest have entries in /etc/hosts.

I see System Error: No route to host(retrying) but I don't know why one
NFS file system mounts and not the others.

TIA for any help.

Tom
