        Richard,
        Yes, I just install HSM two weeks ago. But I have restarted the
Solaris machine several times and the kernel extension has been added.
        Indeed, the rest of the file systems have been created with the same
process at the same time, and they work okey.
        When I do "df" the output is:
        # df
/                  (/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 ): 1038738 blocks   357605 files
/proc              (/proc             ):       0 blocks     1896 files
/dev/fd            (fd                ):       0 blocks        0 files
/swaptmp           (swap              ): 1066576 blocks    19536 files
/discoext/pool04   (/dev/vx/dsk/rootdg/vol03):    6562 blocks      818 files

/discoext/pool03   (/dev/vx/dsk/rootdg/vol06):    1056 blocks      129 files
/discoext/pool07   (/dev/vx/dsk/rootdg/vol01):    5578 blocks      695 files
/home/uitpzdn      (ztv102:/export/home/gu17/uitpzdn):  252528 blocks
223478 files
/itpzad/gen        (ztv101:/itpzad/gen/sun4u_SunOS_5.6): 2296688 blocks
287085 files
/discoext/pool02   (/dev/vx/dsk/rootdg/vol05):    9122 blocks     3826 files
/discoext/pool08   (/dev/vx/dsk/rootdg/vol07): 2094436 blocks   261803 files
        None of them are mounted twice. I understand that AIX and Solaris
does not work the same with this.
        Thank you very much,
        Eva
