VMS Help MOUNT, Qualifiers, /SYSTEM  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    Makes the volume public; that is, available to all users of the
    system, as long as the UIC-based volume protection allows them
    access.

    The logical name for the device is placed in the system logical
    name table. You must have the user privilege SYSNAM to use the
    /SYSTEM qualifier.

    When you mount a volume with the /SYSTEM qualifier in a
    VMScluster system, you must use a volume label that is unique
    clusterwide, even if the specified volume is not mounted
    clusterwide.

    The /SYSTEM qualifier is incompatible with the /GROUP,
    /OVERRIDE=IDENTIFICATION, and /SHARE qualifiers.

    Examples

    The following command mounts the volume labeled SLIP on DUA1 with
    mount messages disabled. The volume is made available systemwide.
    MOUNT also assigns the logical name SACH.

    $ MOUNT/NOMESSAGE/SYSTEM DUA1: SLIP SACH

    The following command creates the volume set named MASTER_PAY
    consisting of the initialized volumes labeled PAYVOL1, PAYVOL2,
    and PAYVOL3. These volumes are mounted physically on the devices
    named DB1, DB2, and DB3, respectively. The volume PAYVOL1 is the
    root volume of the set.

    The volumes are mounted as system volumes to make them available
    to all users.

    $ MOUNT/SYSTEM/BIND=MASTER_PAY -
    _$ DB1:,DB2:,DB3:     PAYVOL1,PAYVOL2,PAYVOL3
