- automatic mounter daemon
-
-
- The automatic mounter daemon,
- amd, automatically mounts a remote
- file system whenever a file or directory within that file
- system is accessed. File systems that are inactive for a
- period of time will be automatically unmounted by
- amd.
-
- This daemon provides an alternative to modifying
- /etc/fstab to list every client. It
- operates by attaching itself as an NFS
- server to the /host and
- /net directories. When a file is
- accessed within one of these directories,
- amd looks up the corresponding
- remote mount and automatically mounts it.
- /net is used to mount an exported file
- system from an IP address while
- /host is used to mount an export from a
- remote hostname. For instance, an attempt to access a file
- within /host/foobar/usr would tell
- amd to mount the
- /usr export on the host
- foobar.
-
-
- Mounting an Export with
- amd
-
- In this example, showmount -e shows
- the exported file systems that can be mounted from the
- NFS server,
- foobar:
-
- &prompt.user; showmount -e foobar
-Exports list on foobar:
-/usr 10.10.10.0
-/a 10.10.10.0
-&prompt.user; cd /host/foobar/usr
-
-
- The output from showmount shows
- /usr as an export. When changing
- directories to /host/foobar/usr,
- amd intercepts the request and
- attempts to resolve the hostname
- foobar. If successful,
- amd automatically mounts the
- desired export.
-
- To enable amd at boot time, add
- this line to /etc/rc.conf:
-
- amd_enable="YES"
-
- To start amd now:
-
- &prompt.root; service amd start
-
- Custom flags can be passed to
- amd from the
- amd_flags environment variable. By
- default, amd_flags is set to:
-
- amd_flags="-a /.amd_mnt -l syslog /host /etc/amd.map /net /etc/amd.map"
-
- The default options with which exports are mounted are
- defined in /etc/amd.map. Some of the
- more advanced features of amd are
- defined in /etc/amd.conf.
-
- Consult &man.amd.8; and &man.amd.conf.5; for more
- information.
