vmount(1) CLIX vmount(1)
The vmount and xvmount commands run visual interfaces to the mount
command, allowing the user to enter the information needed to mount or
unmount a file system in a simpler manner.
Use the vmount command on Environ V-based window systems. Use xvmount on
X Window-based window systems.
Help is available within vmount, and is accessed by clicking on the help
button with the mouse.
EXAMPLES
1. To start the interface, enter the vmount command without any flags.
vmount
2. This example starts the interface and makes it ready to unmount a file
system.

3. This example starts the interface and makes it ready to perform an NFS
mount of a file system from the remote node odie.

4. This example starts the interface in the local mount state. The
default local directory is set to /my_dev and the default file system
type is set to S51K.

graphic workstations.
