Lisa,

FWIW, I haven't seen this behavior on my 5.1 server yet, but I have seen it
frequently on my 4.2 server.

Just from observation (I know it's not what the doc says), the mountwait
will cancel the process if it is waiting for a mount POINT OK, but doesn't
when the mount is needed in the middle of a process that already has the
drive.

When I have seen this, it's always been a problem with the tape robot.

I am wondering if I missed something in the upgrade to 5.1, but is there
somewhere else other than the devclass definition where I would define the
mountwait?

I ask because 140340 seconds is a lot more than 5 minutes!

thanks
lisa
