.SH NAME
hmcdrvfs \- mount a
.SM FUSE
file system for remote access to a
.SM DVD
in a
.SM HMC DVD
drive

.SH SYNOPSIS
mounting:
.nf

\fBhmcdrvfs\fP MOUNTPOINT [OPTIONS]
.RE
.fi
.PP
unmounting:

.SH DESCRIPTION
Use the \fBhmcdrvfs\fP command for read-only access to files
on a
.SM DVD
in the
.SM DVD
drive of an
.SM HMC\c
\&.
On the
.SM HMC\c
, the
.SM DVD
must be assigned to the
.SM LPAR
within which your Linux instance runs.  For
.SM z/VM
guests, the
.SM DVD
must be
assigned to the
.SM LPAR
where the
.SM z/VM
hypervisor runs.
With the
.SM DVD
assigned to your Linux instance, this command creates a
.SM FUSE.HMCDRVFS
file system with the content of the
.SM DVD
at the specified mountpoint.

.SH EXAMPLES
To mount the
.SM HMC
drive
.SM DVD
at \fI/mnt/hmc\fP without any special options use:
.PP
.nf
.RS
.B $ hmcdrvfs /mnt/hmc
.RE
.fi
.PP
In case the kernel module \fIhmcdrv\fP was not loaded in advance use:
.PP
.nf
.RS
.B # modprobe hmcdrv
.B # hmcdrvfs /mnt/hmc
.RE
.fi
.PP
To translate the UID and GID of files on the
.SM HMC
drive
.SM DVD
to your system users and groups along with overriding the permissions use for
example:
.PP
.nf
.RS
.B $ hmcdrvfs /mnt/hmc -o uid=500 -o gid=1000 -o umask=0337
.RE
.fi
.PP
To speed up transfer rates to frequently accessed directories use
the cache timeout option:
.PP
.nf
.RS
.B $ hmcdrvfs /mnt/hmc -o entry_timeout=60
.RE
.PP
.fi
If the
.SM HMC
is in a different timezone and is configured for a
different language use, for example:
.PP
.nf
.RS
.B $ hmcdrvfs /mnt/hmc -o hmclang=de_DE -o hmctz=Europe/Berlin
.RE
.fi
.PP
or disregarding any daylight saving time, specifying hours west of
Prime Meridian (UTC):
.PP
.nf
.RS
.B $ hmcdrvfs /mnt/hmc -o hmclang=de_DE -o hmctz="GMT-1"
.RE
.fi
.PP
To unmount the
.SM HMC
drive
.SM DVD
mounted on \fI/mnt/hmc\fP use:
.PP
.nf
.RS
.B $ fusermount -u /mnt/hmc
.RE
.fi
.PP
It is also possible to mount by using \fBfstab(5)\fP.  Specify
the mount point and associated mount options in \fI/etc/fstab\fP,
for example:
.PP
.nf
.RS
hmcdrvfs /mnt/hmc fuse ro,noatime,allow_other,uid=500,gid=1000
.RE
.fi
.PP
You can then mount the file system with this command:
.PP
.nf
.RS
.B # mount /mnt/hmc
.RE
.fi

.SH FILES
Some general options about mount policy can be set in the
\fI/etc/\:fuse.conf\fP file.  These options are:
.TP
.BI "mount_max=" NNN
Set the maximum number of
.SM FUSE
mounts allowed to non-root users.
The default is 1000.
.TP
.B user_allow_other
Allow non-root users to specify the \fBallow_other\fP or \fBallow_root\fP
mount options.

.SH DIAGNOSTICS
.IP 1. 3
The
.SM FUSE.HMCDRVFS
file system needs access to device node \fI/dev/\:hmcdrv\fP.  This node is
created automatically when the \fIhmcdrv\fP kernel module is loaded (see Linux
kernel configuration option
.SM CONFIG_HMC_DRV\c
).  The user process that runs the \fBhmcdrvfs\fP command must have
sufficient privileges to read from and write to node \fI/dev/\:hmcdrv\fP.
Use the commands \fBchown(1)\fP, \fBchgrp(1)\fP and/or \fBchmod(1)\fP on
node \fI/dev/\:hmcdrv\fP to ensure this condition.

.IP 2. 3
In addition to the required permissions, there are some environmental
requirements:
.RS
.IP - 2
In a
.SM z/VM
environment, the
.SM z/VM
guest virtual machine must have at least privilege class B.
.IP - 2
For Linux in
.SM LPAR
mode, the
.SM LPAR
activation profile must allow issuing
.SM SCLP
requests.
.IP - 2
On the
.SM HMC\c
, the
.SM DVD
must be assigned to the associated system image (use menu \fIAccess Removable
Media\fP).
.RE

.IP 3. 3
The
.SM FUSE.HMCDRVFS
file system maintains a file attributes cache, with an aging timeout.  This
timeout is related to the \fBentry_timeout\fP and \fBattr_timeout\fP
.SM FUSE
options.  Its value exceeds the greater of the two, \fBentry_timeout\fP and
\fBattr_timeout\fP, by 30 - 60 seconds.  This timeout affects the performance
of the
.SM FUSE.HMCDRVFS
file system.
.RE

.IP 4. 3
Different language and time zone settings on the
.SM HMC
and your Linux instance can result in incorrect file modification information.
.RS
.IP - 2
Use the \fBhmclang\fP specific
.SM FUSE.HMCDRVFS
option if the language settings
of the
.SM HMC
and your Linux instance do not match.  Correctly setting this option prevents
incorrect file modification dates in the file details.  Omitting the
\fBhmclang\fP option can result in incorrect dates of the form 01-01-YYYY,
with misleading values for the day and month.
.IP - 2
Use the \fBhmctz\fP specific
.SM FUSE.HMCDRVFS
option if the time zone settings
of the
.SM HMC
and your Linux instance do not match.  Correctly setting this option prevents
incorrect file modification times in the file details.  Omitting \fBhmctz\fP,
an incorrect specification, or a missing time zone description file can result
in modification times that differ up to 25 hours from the correct times.
Specifications that cannot be interpreted result in GMT/UTC being set.  If the
.SM HMC
is set to GMT/UTC, specify \fBhmctz=""\fP.
.RE

.IP 5. 3
The following generic mount options from \fBmount(8)\fP are ignored:
.RS 3
.TP
\fB-w\fP, \fB--rw\fP, \fB-o rw\fP
mount the file system read/write
.TP
.B -o atime
update inode access times on this file system
.RE

.IP 6. 3
The following
.SM FUSE
mount options from \fBmount.fuse(8)\fP are
ignored:
.RS 3
.TP
.B -o hard_remove
immediate removal
.TP
.B -o negative_timeout
cache timeout for deleted names
.TP
.BI "-o max_write=" N
set maximum size of write requests
.TP
.B -o atomic_o_trunc
enable atomic open+truncate support
.TP
.B -o big_writes
enable larger than 4kB writes
.TP
.BI "-o subdir=" DIR
prepend this directory to all paths
.TP
.B -o use_ino
let file system set inode numbers
.TP
.B -o readdir_ino
try to fill in d_ino in readdir
