Environment

Machine hangs when mounting an NFS share in ZENworks Imaging
Resolution
Fixed in Novell ZENworks Linux Management Linux Management 7 Dell Edition - ZLM7 DE
Workaround is to either run portmap or use the "-o nolock" option.
For ZENworks 7 Linux Management Dell Edition, the functionality of adding portmap to zenworks.s script happens by default. If you dont want portmap run, then
specify "portmap=no" on the command line.Additional Information
For example, if attempting to mount an NFS share from the bash prompt after the ZENworks Imaging environment comes up:
bash# mount 10.0.0.1:/birdman /mnt/harddisk
Use the -o nolock option:
bash# mount 10.0.0.1:/birdman /mnt/harddisk -o nolock
