NAME¶
copyfs-mount - mounts a versioned file system
SYNOPSIS¶
copyfs-mount version-directory mount-point
DESCRIPTION¶
This script lets you mount a CopyFS file system.
version-directory is the
directory where the files and version information will be stored by CopyFS.
When using CopyFS for the first time, copyfs-mount will create the required
files in the
version-directory before running copyfs-daemon.
mount-point is the directory where the copyfs file system will be
mounted. This is where the users will have access to the files.
If you want to mount a CopyFS at '/mnt/fs', whose version directory is at
/var/versions, you would use:
root@host# copyfs-mount /var/versions /mnt/fs
To unmount it, simply do:
root@host# umount /mnt/fs
As you would do for any other filesystem.
You can also allow an ordinary non-root users to mount and unmount CopyFS
filesystems provided that the user is added to the 'fuse' group. Ordinary
users will be able unmount the filesystem, using the
fusermount
command:
$ fusermount -u mount-point
