System Administration Commands                       mountall(1M)



NAME
     mountall, umountall - mount, unmount multiple file systems

SYNOPSIS
     mountall [-F FSType] [-l | -r]  [file_system_table]

     umountall [-k] [-s] [-F FSType] [-l | -r]  [-n]

     umountall [-k] [-s] [-h host] [-n]

DESCRIPTION
     mountall is used to mount file systems specified in  a  file
     system  table.  The  file  system table must be in vfstab(4)
     format. If no file_system_table is specified, /etc/vfstab is
     used. If - is specified as file_system_table, mountall reads
     the file system table  from  the  standard  input.  mountall
     mounts  only those file systems with the mount at boot field
     set to yes in the file_system_table.

     For each file system in the file system table, the following
     logic     is     executed:     if     there     exists     a
     file/usr/lib/fs/FSType/fsckall, where FSType is the type  of
     the  file  system,  save  that  file  system in a list to be
     passed  later,  and  all  at  once,  as  arguments  to   the
     /usr/lib/fs/FSType/fsckall            script.            The
     /usr/lib/fs/FSType/fsckall script checks  all  of  the  file
     systems  in  its argument list to determine whether they can
     be safely mounted.  If no /usr/lib/fs/FSType/fsckall  script
     exists for the FSType of the file system, the file system is
     individually checked using fsck(1M). If the file system does
     not  appear  mountable,  it  is  fixed using fsck before the
     mount is attempted. File systems  with  a  -  entry  in  the
     fsckdev field are mounted without first being checked.

     umountall causes all mounted file systems except root, /usr,
     /var,   /var/adm,   /var/run,   /proc,  and  /dev/fd  to  be
     unmounted. If the FSType is specified, mountall  and  umoun-
     tall  limit  their actions to the FSType specified. There is
     no guarantee that umountall unmounts busy file systems, even
     if the -k option is specified.

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported:

     -F              Specify the FSType of the file system to  be
                     mounted or unmounted.



     -h host         Unmount   all   file   systems   listed   in
                     /etc/mnttab  that  are  remote-mounted  from
                     host.

System Administration Commands                       mountall(1M)



     -k              Use the fuser -k  mount-point  command.  See
                     the  fuser(1M)  for  details.  The -k option
                     sends the SIGKILL  signal  to  each  process
                     using  the file. As this option spawns kills
                     for each process, the  kill  messages  might
                     not show up immediately. There is no guaran-
                     tee that umountall unmounts busy  file  sys-
                     tems, even if the -k option is specified.



     -l              Limit the action to local file systems.



     -n              List the actions that would be performed for
                     the  specified  options, but do not actually
                     execute these actions. Repeating the command
                     without  the  -n  option executes the listed
                     actions, assuming that the /etc/mnttab  file
                     has  not  changed  in  the interval prior to
                     repeating the command.



     -r              Limit  the  action  to  remote  file  system
                     types.



     -s              Do  not  perform  the  umount  operation  in
                     parallel.



FILES
     /etc/mnttab                     Mounted file system table



     /etc/vfstab                     Table   of    file    system
                                     defaults



     /usr/lib/fs/FSType/fsckall      Script called by mountall to
                                     perform   the   file  system
                                     check of all file systems of
                                     type FSType
