NAME
volrmmount - call rmmount to mount or unmount media
SYNOPSIS
volrmmount [ -i | -e ] [ name | nickname ]
volrmmount [ -d ]
DESCRIPTION
volrmmount calls rmmount(1M) to, in effect, simulate an
insertion (-i) or an ejection (-e). Simulating an insertion
often means that rmmount will mount the media. Conversely,
simulating an ejection often means that rmmount will
unmount the media. However, these actions can vary depending
on the rmmount configuration and media type (see
rmmount.conf(4)).
For example, if you use the default /etc/rmmount.conf and
insert a music CD, it won't be mounted. However, you can
configure rmmount so that it calls workman whenever a music
CD is inserted.
This command allows you to override Volume Management's
usual handling of media (see EXAMPLES below).
OPTIONS
-i Simulate an insertion of the specified media by cal-
ling rmmount.
-e Simulate an ejection of the specified media by calling
rmmount.
-d Display the name of the default device for volrmmount
to handle. This device is used if no name or nick-
name is supplied.
OPERANDS
name The name that Volume Management recognizes as the
device's name, see volfs(7FS).
nickname
A shortened version of the device's name. Following
is the list of recognized nicknames:

EXAMPLES
Example 1: A sample case of volrmmount command.
When Volume Management finds a floppy that contains a
filesystem, it calls rmmount to mount it. If you wish to
run tar(1) or cpio(1) on that floppy, it must first be
unmounted. To unmount the floppy use:
example% volrmmount -e floppy0
After volrmmount unmounts the floppy, if you wish to re-
mount it (rather than ejecting it and reinserting it) use:
example% volrmmount -i floppy0
Note that if you are using a named floppy you can use its
name in place of floppy0.
