mount_profs(1M)

mount_profs -- mount the processor filesystem

Synopsis

mount [-F profs] [generic_options] [-r] [-o specific_options]
[processorfs|mount_point]
mount [-F profs] [generic_options] [-r] [-o specific_options]
processorfs mount_point

Description

generic_options are options supported by the generic mount command. mount attaches a profs filesystem to the filesystem hierarchy at the pathname location mount_point, which must already exist. If mount_point has any contents prior to the mount operation, these remain hidden until the filesystem is once again unmounted.

profs-specific options

-F profs

Specifies the profs-FSType.

-o

Specify the profs filesystem specific options in a comma-separated list. If invalid options are specified, a warning message is printed and the invalid options are ignored. Multiple filesystem-specific options may be listed in any order, but must be separated by commas. The following option is available:

rootmode: Specifies the mode of the root directory of the mounted file system. Default is 0755.

Files

/etc/mnttab: mount table

Notices

If the directory on which a filesystem is to be mounted is a symbolic link, the filesystem is mounted on the directory to which the symbolic link refers, rather than on top of the symbolic link itself.

mount_profs can be mounted on any mount point. However, beginning in Release 4.2 MP, the mount point is generally chosen to be /system/processor.
