System Administration Commands vold(1M)
NAME
vold - Volume Management daemon to manage removable media
devices
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/vold [-n] [-t] [-v] [-f config-file] [-l log-file]
[-d root-dir] [-L debug-level]
DESCRIPTION
The Volume Management daemon, vold, creates and maintains a
file system image rooted at root-dir that contains symbolic
names for removable media devices. These devices include
CD-R, CD-RW, floppies, DVD, and USB and 1394 mass storage
devices. The default root-dir is set to /vol if no directory
is specified by the -d option.
vold reads the /etc/vold.conf configuration file upon
startup. If the configuration file is modified later, vold
must be told to reread the /etc/vold.conf file. Accomplish
this rereading by entering:
example# svcadm refresh volfs
To tell vold to clean up and exit, enter:
example# svcadm disable volfs
To reenable:
example# svcadm enable volfs
To specify options (see OPTIONS):
example# svccfg
svc:> select volfs
svc:/system/filesystem/volfs> listprop vold/*
vold/config_file astring
vold/log_debuglevel count 0
vold/log_file astring
vold/log_nfs_trace boolean false
vold/log_verbose boolean false
vold/never_writeback_label boolean false
vold/root_dir astring
svc:/system/filesystem/volfs> setprop vold/never_writeback_label=true
svc:/system/filesystem/volfs> exit
# svcadm disable volfs
# svcadm enable volfs
vold is hotplug-aware for USB and 1394 mass storage devices,
thus there is no need for stopping and restarting vold. It
is recommended to eject(1) the "media" before hot-removing a

device. The eject command unmounts any filesystems mounted
from the media, making it safe to remove the device. (Note
that all USB and 1394 devices, regardless of whether they
contain removable media, are treated like removable media
devices).
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-n Never writeback. Volume Management updates
media labels with unique information if
labels are not unique. This flag keeps
Volume Management from changing your media.
The default setting is FALSE.
-t Dump NFS trace information to the log file.
The default setting is FALSE.
-v Provide lots of status information to the
log file. The default setting is FALSE (do
not provide status info to log file).
-d root-dir Specify an alternate root directory. The
default location is /vol. Setting this will
also cause other Volume Management utilities
to use this as the default root directory.
-f config-file Specify an alternate configuration file. The
default file is /etc/vold.conf.
-l log-file Specify an alternate log file. The default
log file is /var/adm/vold.log.
-L debug-level Change the level (verbosity) of debug mes-
sages sent to the log file. The range is 0
to 99 where 0 is nothing and 99 is every-
thing. The default level is 0.
