  Re: Do you know how to find open files on the /export/home partition while runnning Solaris 9?

  try the fuser command
  
  either fuser -c /export/home which will give you a list of PIDS that have files open in the filesystem
  or fuser -f [yourfile] which will give you the pid of processes that have your file open.

    If you want to kill off those processes (say for file locking applications or defunct users that still hold an inode open) to do maintenance, fuser -ck (kill) works well.

  You could also install "lsof" and use the same command on most any *ix platform.

    Or go to Solaris 10 (or bsd, or soon osx)nand dtrace it, for that matter.

      Dtrace is a great tool, but the learning curve on it is pretty nasty.

  Are you also looking to see if there are any remote users of that filesystem (eg, NFS)?
