You can use SoftBench with data on a file system that is NFS-mounted or automountable from another system. The mount point can be anywhere you choose. Check the following list to see if you need to do any special setup to access your remote data with SoftBench:

  • If you are using the automounter to mount remote file systems, you may want to set up the automounter with the -hosts special map. If you choose a mount point other than /net or /nfs, you need to create an AUTOMOUNT_PREFIXES entry in the wusr.conf file. For more information, see wusr.conf(4) and automount(1M).

  • The remote file system needs to be exported appropriately. See exportfs(1M) for more information.

  • User and group ID numbers should match on all systems involved (to avoid permission problems). If you want to run a SoftBench process remotely, user and group ID numbers must match.

  • If you are using SoftBench Debugger and the executable that you are debugging resides on a remote NFS file system (with respect to the execution host), the file system must be mounted with the "nointr" option set. See mount(1M) for details on this option.
