NetBackup™ for VMware Administrator's Guide

Restarting the Client for NFS service on a Windows restore host

It may be necessary to stop and restart the NFS Client service. If you use the Microsoft services snap-in (Services.msc) to restart it, the service does not start until you restart the server.

To restart the Client for NFS service without a server restart

  • From the Windows command prompt, run the following commands:
    net stop nfsclnt
    net stop nfsrdr
    net start nfsrdr 
    net start nfsclnt
    

    The Client for NFS service should restart without a restart of the server.
