DDDDEEEESSSSCCCCRRRRIIIIPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNN _m_o_u_n_t attaches a named filesystem _f_s_n_a_m_e to the filesystem hierarchy at the pathname location _d_i_r. The directory _d_i_r must already exist. It becomes the name of the newly mounted root. The contents of _d_i_r are hidden until the filesystem is unmounted. If _f_s_n_a_m_e is of the form host:path, the filesystem type is assumed to be nnnnffffssss. _u_m_o_u_n_t unmounts a currently mounted filesystem, which can be specified either as a mounted-on directory or a filesystem. _m_o_u_n_t and _u_m_o_u_n_t maintain a table of mounted filesystems in /_e_t_c/_m_t_a_b, described in _m_t_a_b(4). If invoked without an argument, _m_o_u_n_t displays the table. If invoked with only one of _f_s_n_a_m_e or _d_i_r, _m_o_u_n_t searches the file /_e_t_c/_f_s_t_a_b (see _f_s_t_a_b(4)) for an entry whose _d_i_r or _f_s_n_a_m_e field matches the given argument. For example, if this line is in /_e_t_c/_f_s_t_a_b: ////ddddeeeevvvv////uuuussssrrrr ////uuuussssrrrr xxxxffffssss rrrrwwww 0000 0000 then the commands mmmmoooouuuunnnntttt ////uuuussssrrrr and mmmmoooouuuunnnntttt ////ddddeeeevvvv////uuuussssrrrr are shorthand for mmmmoooouuuunnnntttt ////ddddeeeevvvv////uuuussssrrrr ////uuuussssrrrr.

Multiple types may be specified with the ----TTTT option. Filesystems are not necessarily mounted in the order listed in /_e_t_c/_f_s_t_a_b.

NNNNOOOOTTTTEEEE: The use of uuuummmmoooouuuunnnntttt ----aaaa is _N_O_T symmetric with mmmmoooouuuunnnntttt ----aaaa, because the first is based on the mmmmttttaaaabbbb file, while the second is based on the ffffssssttttaaaabbbb file.

Using umount -a itself is not usually a good idea, because it can not be reversed by the command mount -a since a number of filesystems are often not in the /_e_t_c/_f_s_t_a_b file. Among these are the _p_r_o_c and _f_d filesystems. Instead, use a command similar to umount -T xfs,efs ----hhhh _h_o_s_t Unmount all filesystems listed in /_e_t_c/_m_t_a_b that are remote- mounted from _h_o_s_t. ----mmmm _n_u_m_p_r_o_c_s Use no more than _n_u_m_p_r_o_c_s processes to unmount the specified file systems in parallel.

By default _m_o_u_n_t checks to see if the destination partition or logical volume overlaps any mounted or reserved partitions in the system. If an overlap or mount conflict is found, the user will be notified and prevented from potentially corrupting the existing data. For systems with a large number of disks, this additional checking may add noticable overhead to the command's execution time. For situations where command performance is necessary, this switch may be used to disable the safeguards. Due to the potential for user-error causing corrupted filesystems or other on-disk data corruption, we strongly discourage use of this switch in normal operation.

It doesn't usually indicate that you have specified the command line incorrectly; rather that there is something wrong with the disk partition, the filesystem in the disk partition, or the mount directory. For example, this error message occurs if you try to mount a device that doesn't contain a valid filesystem. From _u_m_o_u_n_t: _m_o_u_n_t_d_i_r: Resource busy Possible causes of a this message are: open files in the filesystem, programs being executed from the filesystems, and users whose current directory is in the filesystem. Usually it is not possible to unmount the /_u_s_r filesystem because many daemons, such as /_u_s_r/_l_i_b/_l_p_s_c_h_e_d, /_u_s_r/_e_t_c/_y_p_b_i_n_d, and /_u_s_r/_e_t_c/_s_y_s_l_o_g_d, execute from the /_u_s_r filesystem. The simplest way to make sure the /_u_s_r filesystem is not busy is to bring the system down to single-user mode with the _s_i_n_g_l_e(1M) command. You can force all filesystems except the root filesystem to be unmounted with the _u_m_o_u_n_t ----kkkk option (note that this kills processes).
