NAME

6       autofs  -  file  containing  parameter values for automountd daemon and
7       automount command
8

SYNOPSIS

10       /etc/default/autofs
11
12

DESCRIPTION

14       The autofs file resides in directory /etc/default and supplies  default
15       parameters for the automountd(1M) daemon and the automount(1M) command.
16
17
18       The  autofs  file  format is ASCII; comment lines begin with the cross‐
19       hatch (#) character. Parameters consist of a  keyword  followed  by  an
20       equal sign followed by the parameter value, of the form:
21
22         keyword=value
23
24
25
26
27       As  shipped,  the  parameters  in the autofs file are commented out. As
28       root, you must uncomment a keyword-value line to  make  the  value  for
29       that parameter take effect.
30
31
32       Administrators  can  make  changes  to the startup parameters for auto‐
33       mountd by logging in as root and editing the autofs file. Changes  made
34       to  autofs  values  on an automount or automountd command line override
35       values in /etc/default/autofs. The  /etc/default/autofs  file  is  pre‐
36       served across operating system upgrades.
37
38
39       The following parameters are currently supported in the autofs file:
40
41       AUTOMOUNT_TIMEOUT=<num>
42
43           Specifies  a  duration, in seconds, that a file system is to remain
44           mounted when not in use. The default value  is  600  (10  minutes).
45           Equivalent to the -t option in automount.
46
47
48       AUTOMOUNT_VERBOSE=TRUE | FALSE
49
50           Verbose  mode.  Causes  you  to be notified of non-critical events,
51           suchs as autofs mounts and unmounts. The default  value  is  FALSE.
52           Equivalent to the -v option in automount.
53
54
55       AUTOMOUNTD_VERBOSE=TRUE | FALSE
56
57           Verbose   mode.   Causes   status   messages   to   be   logged  to
58           /var/svc/log/system-filesystem-autofs:default.log.  (See   smf(5).)
59           The  default  value  is FALSE. Equivalent to the -v option in auto‐
60           mountd.
61
62
63       AUTOMOUNTD_NOBROWSE=<num>
64
65           Turn on or off browsing for all autofs mount  points.  The  default
66           value is FALSE. Equivalent to the -n option in automountd.
67
68
69       AUTOMOUNTD_TRACE=<num>
70
71           Expands  each  RPC call and logs it to /var/svc/log/system-filesys‐
72           tem-autofs:default.log. (See smf(5).) The default value,  0,  turns
73           off such tracing. Starting with 1, with each higher value, the ver‐
74           bosity of trace output increases.
75
76
77       AUTOMOUNTD_ENV=<name>=<value>
78
79           Environment variables. Each environment variable-value pairing must
80           be  on  its own line. You can specify multiple such pairings. There
81           are no environment variable settings supplied. For  example:  AUTO‐
82           MOUNTD_ENV=DAY=TUES
