     MOUNTALL(1M)                                         MOUNTALL(1M)



     NAME
          mountall, umountall - mount, unmount multiple file systems

     SYNOPSIS
          /etc/mountall [-]  [file-system-table]  ...
          /etc/umountall [ -k ]

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

          mountall  is used to mount file systems according to a
          file-system-table. (/etc/fstab is the default file system
          table.) The special file name "-" reads from the standard
          input.

          Before each file system is mounted, it is checked using
          fsstat(1M) to see if it appears mountable.  If the file
          system does not appear mountable, it is checked, using
          fsck(1M), before the mount is attempted.

          umountall causes all mounted file systems except root to be
          unmounted.  The -k option sends a SIGKILL signal, via
          fuser(1M), to processes that have files open.

     FILES
          File-system-table format:

          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

          column 4    (optional) file system type string

          column 5+   ignored

          White-space separates columns.  Lines beginning with "#" are
          comments.  Empty lines are ignored.

          A typical file-system-table might read:

               /dev/dsk/c1d0s2   /usr -r S51K

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