NAME

rmountall, rumountall - mount, unmount Remote File Sharing resources

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/rmountall [-] " file-system-table " [...]
/usr/sbin/rumountall [ -k ]

DESCRIPTION

rmountall is a Remote File Sharing command used to mount remote resources according to a file-system-table. (/etc/vfstab is the recommended file-system-table.) rmountall also invokes the rmnttry command, which attempts to mount queued resources. The special file name ``-'' reads from the standard input.

rumountall causes all mounted remote resources to be unmounted and deletes all resources that were queued from rmount. The -k option sends a SIGKILL signal, via fuser, to processes that have files open.

These commands may be executed only by the super-user.

The format of the file-system-table is as follows:

column 1  block special file name of file system

column 2  mount-point directory

column 3 -r if to be mounted read-only; -d if remote resource

column 4 file system type (not used with Remote File Sharing)

column 5+ ignored

Columns are separated by white space. Lines beginning with a pound sign (#) are comments. Empty lines are ignored.

DIAGNOSTICS
