13 13 DESCRIPTION
14 14 The rmmount utility is a removable media mounter that is executed by
15 15 volume management whenever a removable medium, such as a CD-ROM or a
16 16 floppy, is inserted. Removable media is managed by an application or a
17 - volume manager. rmmount can also be called by using volrmmount(1).
17 + volume manager.

20 20 Upon insertion of a medium and following invocation of the volcheck(1)
21 21 command, rmmount determines what type of file system (if any) is on
22 22 that medium. If a file system is present, rmmount mounts the file
23 23 system in one of the locations listed below.

73 73 mounted named Zip medium
74 74
75 75
76 76 /rmdisk/Zip_name/partition
77 77 mounted named Zip medium with partitioned
78 78 file system
79 79
80 80
81 81 /rmdisk/unnamed_zip
82 82 mounted unnamed Zip medium
83 83
84 84
85 85
86 86 For a Jaz drive:
87 87
88 88 /rmdisk/jaz0
89 89 symbolic link to mounted Jaz medium in
90 90 local Jaz drive
91 91
92 92
93 93 /rmdisk/Jaz_name
94 94 mounted named Jaz medium
95 95
96 96
97 97 /rmdisk/Jaz_name/partition
98 98 mounted named Jaz medium with partitioned
99 99 file system
100 100
101 101
102 102 /rmdisk/unnamed_Jaz
103 103 mounted unnamed Jaz medium
104 104
105 105
106 106
107 107 For a generic "rmdisk" drive:
108 108
109 109 /rmdisk/rmdisk0
110 110
111 111 symbolic link to mounted removable medium in local removable medium
112 112 drive
113 113
114 114
115 115 /rmdisk/rmdisk_name
116 116
117 117 mounted named removable medium
118 118
119 119
120 120 /rmdisk/rmdisk_name/partition
121 121
122 122 mounted named removable medium with partitioned file system
123 123
124 124
125 125 /rmdisk/unnamed_rmdisk
126 126
127 127 mounted unnamed removable medium
128 128
129 129
130 130
131 131 If the media is read-only (for example, a CD-ROM or a floppy with
132 132 write-protect tab set), the file system is mounted read-only.
133 133
134 134
135 135 If a file system is not identified, rmmount does not mount a file
136 136 system. See the for more information on the location of CD-ROM,
137 137 floppy, and other media without file systems.
138 138
139 139
140 140 If a file system type has been determined, it is then checked to see
141 141 that it is "clean." If the file system is "dirty," fsck -p (see
142 142 fsck(1M)) is run in an attempt to clean it. If fsck fails, the file
143 143 system is mounted read-only.
144 144
145 145
146 146 After the mount is complete, "actions" associated with the media type
147 147 are executed. These actions allow for the notification to other
148 148 programs that new media are available.
149 149
150 150
151 151 Actions are executed in the order in which they appear in the
152 152 configuration file. The action function can return either 1 or 0. If it
153 153 returns 0, no further actions will be executed. This allows the
154 154 function to control which applications are executed.
155 155
156 156
157 157 In order to execute an action, rmmount performs a dlopen(3C) on the
158 158 shared object and calls the action function defined within it. The
159 159 definition of the interface to actions can be found in
160 160 /usr/include/rmmount.h.
161 161
162 162
163 163 File systems mounted by rmmount are always mounted with the nosuid flag
164 164 set, thereby disabling setuid programs and access to block or character
165 165 devices in that file system. Upon ejection, rmmount unmounts mounted
166 166 file systems and executes actions associated with the media type. If a
167 167 file system is "busy" (that is, it contains the current working
168 168 directory of a live process), the ejection will fail.
