Description
Options
automount [–e] [–a|q] [–s] [Master filename]
automount is used to configure the automount facility. This facility can
automatically mount file systems at the time they are accessed, and also unmount
them later. You can use a single automount policy to manage both HFS and zFS
file systems. (For information on setting up the automount facility, refer to z/OS
UNIX System Services Planning.)
The automount file system is mounted as AUTOMOVE(YES). However, if the parent
file system has the automove unmount attribute, then the automount file system will
have that attribute instead of AUTOMOUNT(YES).
When run with no arguments, automount reads the /etc/auto.master file to
determine all directories that are to be configured for automounting and the
filenames that contain their configuration specifications.
Guideline: zFS is the preferred file system and continued use of HFS is
discouraged. New file systems should be created as zFS file systems.
If you run automount with the [master filename] argument, that filename is used
instead of /etc/auto.master.
automount should be run from the /etc/rc script with no arguments. This processes
the installation’s default automount configuration file.
If the automount policy is loaded, you will get a return code of 0. A nonzero return
code indicates that the policy was not loaded.
automount requires superuser authority.
Restriction: The automount function requires the zFS file system to be a
compatibility mode file system. zFS file systems in multi-file system aggregates will
not work with automount.
–a Indicates that the policy being loaded is to be appended to the existing
policy rather than replace the existing policy. For example:
/usr/sbin/automount -a
–a is mutually exclusive with –q.
–e Displays recent error information from automount attempting to create a
