1325.2New mount_service and umount_service toolsBACHUS::DEVOSManu Devos DEC/SI Brussels 856-7539Fri Mar 28 1997 09:1148
    Hi,
    
    This note to annouce the new version of "mount_service" and the birth
    of "umount_service". 
    
    1) mount_service version 2 is now handling correctly the NONE mount
       point and provide more explicit error messages.
    
    2) mount_service is now offering an option "-n". It still allows LSM
       and ADVFS setup to be done automatically, but prevents the automatic
       mounting of the filesystems. Instead, the standard output is displaying
       for each filesystem the device, mount point, fstype and options as they
       are set in the DECsafe database. You can thus mount the filesystems your
       own way.
    
    3) umount_service is now provided to dis-mount the filesystems (even if
       you mounted them your own way), remove the ADVFS setup in /etc/fdmns
       and stop the LSM volumes, deport the diskgroup and place the LSM disks
       offline. The "service" can now be started by "asemgr -s service" with 
       all the LSM/ADVFS/FS items in their original state.
    
    You can get a copy of these tools a anonymous ftp to fscr44.bro.dec.com 
    (16.183.0.133). Be carrefull that an older version of mount_service is
    placed somewhere in the examples of XIRTLU.
                                   
    Best regards, Manu.
