mountall(1M)                                            mountall(1M)


       NAME
             mountall, umountall - mount, unmount multiple file systems

       SYNOPSIS
             /sbin/mountall  [-F FSType] [-l | -r] [file_system_table]
             /sbin/umountall [-F FSType] [-k] [-l | -r]

       DESCRIPTION
             The mountall command mounts file systems according to a
             file_system_table.  If no file_system_table is specified, then
             the file /etc/dfs/dfstab is used.

             Before each file system is mounted, a sanity check is done
             using fsck [see fsck(1M)] to see if it appears mountable.  If
             the file system does not appear mountable, it is fixed, using
             fsck, before the mount is attempted.

             The umountall command causes all mounted file systems except
             root, /proc, /stand, and /dev/fd to be unmounted.

          Files
             /etc/vfstab default file system table

          Diagnostics
             No messages are printed if the file systems are mountable and
             clean.

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

       USAGE
             With no arguments mountall restricts the mount to all systems
             with automnt field set to yes in the file_system_table.

             If the FSType is specified, mountall and umountall limit their
             actions to the FSType specified.

          Options
             The mountall and umountall commands take the following
             options:

             -F        Specify the File System type to be mounted or
                       unmounted.  If FSType is specified the action is
                       limited to file systems of this FSType.

            -l        Limit the action to local file systems.

            -r        Limit the action to remote file system types.

            -k        Send a SIGKILL signal to processes that have files
