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 1block special file name of file system column 2mount-point directory column 3−r if to be mounted read-only; −d if remote resource column 4file 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. 

SEE ALSO

sysadm(1), signal(2). 

DIAGNOSTICS

No messages are printed if the remote resources are mounted successfully. 

Error and warning messages come from mount(1M).
