6       umount.nfs, umount.nfs4 - unmount a Network File System
7

SYNOPSIS

9       umount.nfs dir [-fvnrlh ]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       umount.nfs  and  umount.nfs4  are  a  part of nfs(5) utilities package,
13       which provides NFS client functionality.
14
15       umount.nfs4 and umount.nfs are meant to be used by the  umount(8)  com‐
16       mand  for  unmounting NFS shares. This subcommand, however, can also be
17       used as a standalone command with limited functionality.
18
19       dir is the directory on which the file system is mounted.

OPTIONS

23       -f     Force unmount the file system in case of unreachable NFS system.
24
25       -v     Be verbose.
26
27       -n     Do not update /etc/mtab.  By default, an  entry  is  created  in
28              /etc/mtab for every mounted file system. Use this option to skip
29              deleting an entry.
30
31       -r     In case unmounting fails, try to mount read-only.
32
33       -l     Lazy unmount. Detach the file system from the file system  hier‐
34              archy now, and cleanup all references to the file system as soon
35              as it is not busy anymore.
36
37       -h     Print help message.
