After restarting the automount service, you can check the status of the service. For example, on Linux run the following command:
service autofs status
On all platforms, you can run the following command and check the output to verify automount operation:
/usr/sbin/automount -V
You should see output similar to the following:
automount: /export/home mounted automount: no unmounts
