NAME fsentry - create a file-system-table entry SYNOPSIS fsentry -ttype [-o optlist] [-d dumpfreq] [-p passno] [-n] [-f] file-system mount-point DESCRIPTION fsentry creates entries in the file-system table, /etc/fstab. Only one entry is allowed per invocation. The syntax is similar to that of the mount command. fsentry also optionally mounts the file system for which an entry has been generated. FLAG OPTIONS The following command-line arguments are interpreted by fsentry: -t type Specify the type of file system. This must be nfs, 4.2 (UFS), 5.2 (SVFS), swap, or ignore. file-system Specify the file system to be mounted. In the case of remote (NFS) file systems, this is of the form host:mount-point where host is the name of the remote host system, and mount- point is the full pathname of a directory on that system. In the case of local (UFS, SVFS, and swap) file systems, the form is /dev/dsk/cxd0sy , where x is the SCSI ID number of the hard disk containing the file system, and y is the slice (usually between 0 and 31, inclusive). In the case of ignore, it may be of either form. mount-point Specify the full pathname of a directory on the local machine, to be used as the mount point. If this directory does not exist, fsentry creates it. This option is ignored for type swap. Additional command-line flag options allow administrators to override default values. The following options are avail- able: -o optlist Specify a comma-separated list of mounting op- tions, as used by mount. For remote (NFS) file systems, the default options are rw, bg, intr. For swap, 4.2 (UFS), or 5.2 (SVFS) file systems, the default is rw. For type ignore, the default is determined based on the form used for file-system. April, 1990 1

-d dumpfreq Specify the dump frequency, used by the dump.bsd command. The default is 0. This op- tion is ignored for remote (NFS) file systems and swap file systems. -p passno Specify the pass number, used by fsck. The de- fault is 2. This option is ignored for remote (NFS) and swap file systems. -n Specify the ``No auto'' option. By default, file systems are automatically mounted after a file-system-table entry is generated and each time the system boots. This option sets the noauto flag in the entry. The file system must be mounted explicitly with the mount com- mand. fsentry does not mount the file system. -f Force creation of file-system-table entry. If /etc/fstab already contains an existing entry for either file system or mount-point, fsentry prints an error message and quits. This op- tion forces fsentry to generate a file- system-table entry that may overlap an exist- ing entry. Note that no checking is done for existing entries if the type specified is ig- nore.
