MOUNTFS(1M)                                                        MOUNTFS(1M)



NAME
     mountfs - mounts a filesystem.

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/sysadm/privbin/mountfs -d fsMountPoint [ -s fsSource ] [ -t fileType
     ] [ -o options ] [ -cnu ]

     /usr/sysadm/privbin/mountfs -a

DESCRIPTION
     Mountfs mounts a filesystem/directory to make it accessible locally.

OPTIONS
     -d fsMountPoint
          The local directory where the filesystem/directory is to be mounted.

     -s fsSource
          The filesystem/directory name.

     -t fileType
          fileType supported are efs, xfs, nfs, fd, cachefs, dos, hfs, and
          iso9660.

     -o options
          options are the same as defined in fstab(4).

     -a   mount all the entries that are in /etc/fstab.  In this case all
          other parameters and flags are ignored.

     -c   if the fsMountPoint directory doesn't exist, it is created.

     -n   do not write the mount entry into the /etc/fstab file, only mount
          it. In this case, if the entry that matches fsMountPoint is found in
          the /etc/fstab file, the entry is mounted as in the file. If no
          entry is found then fsSource, fsMountPoint, fileType, and options
          are required, otherwise error exit.

     -u   update the entry that matches fsMountPoint with the input
          parameters. If the entry doesn't exist, it causes an error exit.
          The -u flag is ignored if -n is specified.
