NAME¶
mounting - event signalling that a filesystem is mounting
SYNOPSIS¶
mounting DEVICE=DEVICE MOUNTPOINT=MOUNTPOINT
TYPE=TYPE OPTIONS=OPTIONS [
ENV]...
DESCRIPTION¶
The
mounting event is generated by the
mountall(8) daemon when it
is about to mount a filesystem.
mountall(8) will wait for all services
started by this event to be running, all tasks started by this event to have
finished and all jobs stopped by this event to be stopped before proceeding
with mounting the filesystem.
The
DEVICE,
MOUNTPOINT,
TYPE and
OPTIONS environment
variables contain the values of the
fstab(5) fields for this
mountpoint.
EXAMPLE¶
A tool that should be run before mounting the
/var filesystem might use:
start on mounting MOUNTPOINT=/var
task
