Quick step to restart the autofs service on Solaris. I’m running Solaris 10.

  1. Check the auto service status.
    # svcs | grep auto<br /> legacy_run Oct_24 lrc:/etc/rc2_d/S72autoinstall<br /> online 17:31:10 svc:/system/filesystem/autofs:default

  2. Restart the autofs service
    # svcadm -v restart svc:/system/filesystem/autofs:default<br /> Action restart set for svc:/system/filesystem/autofs:default.
