Because the NAS sever died, I cannot access the directory that we mount the NDF share over. The API just returns an error. The unmount command say's the object is in use. I IPL'd the system and then was able to mount over the replacement NAS server.

Thank you for your suggestion.

Subject: RE: UNMOUNT *NFS SHARE - OBJECT IN USE

Hi Chris
there is an 'API' to find locks on IFS objects, I never tryed it in this
particular case, but it could do the job...

CALL PGM(QP0FPTOS) PARM(*LSTOBJREF '/RMTHC01' *FORMAT2)

this will produce a spooled file with more information about the locks...

NETSTAT cannot help as the connection is probably closed by the
NAS/network problem...

the difference betwwen hard and soft is in the doc..
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_ibm_i_61/cl/mount.htm

hard|soft
For the mount of a Network File System, specifies whether NFS file systems
are hard or soft mounted. Hard mounted means that operations on them are
retried until they are acknowledged by the server. Soft mounted means that
a timeout error is returned if a remote operation fails the number of
times specified on the retrans option. If neither is specified, hard is
assumed.
