AUTOUNMOUNTD(8)         NetBSD System Manager's Manual         AUTOUNMOUNTD(8)


NAME

     autounmountd -- daemon unmounting automounted file systems


SYNOPSIS

     autounmountd [-r time] [-t time] [-dv]


DESCRIPTION

     The autounmountd daemon is responsible for unmounting file systems
     mounted by automountd(8).  On startup, autounmountd retrieves a list of
     file systems that have the automounted mount option set.  The list is
     updated every time a file system is mounted or unmounted.  After a speci-
     fied time passes, autounmountd attempts to unmount a file system, retry-
     ing after some time if necessary.

     These options are available:

     -d  Debug mode: increase verbosity and do not daemonize.

     -r  Number of seconds to wait before trying to unmount an expired file
         system after a previous attempt failed, possibly due to file system
         being busy.  The default value is 600, or ten minutes.

     -t  Number of seconds to wait before trying to unmount a file system.
         The default value is 600, or ten minutes.

     -v  Increase verbosity.


EXIT STATUS

     The autounmountd utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
