14
16 The volrmmount utility calls rmmount(1M) to, in effect, simulate an
17 insertion (-i) or an ejection (-e). Simulating an insertion often means
18 that rmmount will mount the media. Conversely, simulating an ejection
19 often means that rmmount will unmount the media. However, these actions
20 can vary depending on the rmmount configuration and media type.
21
22
23 For example, using default settings, if you insert a music CD, it might
24 not be mounted. However, you can configure rmmount so that it calls
25 workman whenever a music CD is inserted.

28 This command allows you to override volume management's usual handling
29 of media (see EXAMPLES below).

32 The following options are supported:
33
34 -i Simulates an insertion of the specified media by calling rmmount.
35
36

95 Example 1 Using the volrmmount command
96
97
98 When volume management finds a floppy that contains a filesystem, it
99 calls rmmount to mount it. If you wish to run tar(1) or cpio(1) on that
100 floppy, it must first be unmounted. To unmount the floppy use:
101
102
103 example% volrmmount −e floppy0
104
105
106
107
108 After volrmmount unmounts the floppy, if you wish to re-mount it
109 (rather than ejecting it and reinserting it) use:
110
111
112 example% volrmmount −i floppy0
113
114
115
116
117 Notice that if you are using a named floppy, you can use its name in
118 place of floppy0.
