AUTOMOUNT(8) System Manager's Manual AUTOMOUNT(8) NAME automount -- update autofs mounts SYNOPSIS automount [-D name=value] [-L] [-c] [-f] [-o options] [-v] [-u] DESCRIPTION When called without options, the automount command parses the auto_master(5) configuration file and any direct maps that it refer- ences, and mounts or unmounts autofs(5) filesystems to match. These options are available: -D Define a variable. It is only useful with -L. -L Do not mount or unmount anything. Instead parse auto_master(5) and any direct maps, then print them to standard output. When speci- fied more than once, all the maps, including indirect ones, will be parsed and shown. This is useful when debugging configuration problems. -c Flush caches, discarding possibly stale information obtained from maps and directory services. -f Force unmount, to be used with -u. -o Specify mount options to be used along with the ones specified in the maps. It is only useful with -L. -u Try to unmount filesystems mounted by automountd(8). autofs(5) mounts are not unmounted. To unmount all autofs mounts, use umount -At autofs. -v Increase verbosity. EXIT STATUS The automount utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. EXAMPLES Unmount all filesystems mounted by automountd(8): automount -u SEE ALSO auto_master(5), autofs(5), automountd(8), autounmountd(8) HISTORY The automount command appeared in FreeBSD 10.1. AUTHORS The automount was developed by Edward Tomasz Napierala <trasz@FreeBSD.org> under sponsorship from the FreeBSD Foundation. FreeBSD 14.3 November 22, 2014 AUTOMOUNT(8)
