MOUNTALL(1M)							  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]  [-Z]

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

DESCRIPTION
       mountall	 is  used to mount file systems specified in a file system ta‐
       ble.  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 in the current zone except
       root,  /usr,  /var,  /var/adm,  /var/run,  /proc,  and  /dev/fd	to  be
       unmounted.  If  the  FSType  is specified, mountall and umountall limit
       their actions to the FSType  specified.	There  is  no  guarantee  that
       umountall  unmounts  busy file systems, even if the -k option is speci‐
       fied.

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.

       -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 guarantee 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.  Repeat‐
		  ing  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.

       -Z
		  Apply	 the  action(s)	 only  to the file systems  mounted in
		  non-global zones. By default, umountall unmounts  only  file
		  systems mounted in the current zone. Option -Z is ignored if
		  used in a non-global zone.

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

ATTRIBUTES
       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

       ┌────────────────────┬─────────────────┐
       │  ATTRIBUTE TYPE    │ ATTRIBUTE VALUE │

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

       Error and warning messages come from fsck(1M) and mount(1M).

NOTES
       At  this	 time, NFS is the only remote file system supported by the -l,
       -r, and -h options.
