    Sorry to post back to the list, but I have gotten several reply's
    from folks including the relevent man pages that show how to do
    REPLICATED mounts - I'm doing all that with priorities, etc.

    What I asked about was can/when will HPUX do **FAILOVER** with
    those mounts. I.e. an HP-UX client mounts SERVER1, since it responds
    quickest (or is weighted lower, etc) ... and while SERVER1 is
    mounted, it goes down. A Solaris client will (for read-only mounts)
    auto-failover to anothet server, whereas HPUX does not appear to.

    As mentioned, using non-HP supplied automounter (ex: amd) is NOT
    an option here. Again, I'll summerize back to the list and thanx
    for the responses so far.

    alek

    P.S. And since it is a hung mount point, even the Hulkster can't unmount it:
