Description

Manages currently mounted volumes, i.e. the live state of the filesystem. See the discussion under the mounttab type for usage.

Parameters

name

The path to the mount point.

options

Mount options for the mounts, as they would appear in the fstab.

remounts

Whether the mount can be remounted mount -o remount. If this is false, then the filesystem will be unmounted and remounted manually, which is prone to failure. Valid values are true, false.

Properties

ensure

The basic property that the resource should be in. Valid values are present, absent.

device

The device providing the mount. This can be whatever device is supporting by the mount, including network devices or devices specified by UUID rather than device path, depending on the operating system. If you already have an entry in your fstab (or you use the mounttab type to create such an entry), it is generally not necessary to specify the fstype explicitly

fstype

The mount type. Valid values depend on the operating system. If you already have an entry in your fstab (or you use the mounttab type to create such an entry), it is generally not necessary to specify the fstype explicitly

Providers

linux

Required binaries: mount, umount. Default for kernel == linux.

solaris

Required binaries: mount, umount. Default for operatingsystem == solaris.

Description

Manages entries in the filesystem table. This is usually, but not necessarily, used in conjunction with the mountpoint type to manage both the current-running state of mounts (mountpoint) with the fstab entries which load them at boot time (mounttab). An easy way to manage both at the same time is with a defined type that wraps both resources in one call, since the three most important options (the device name, the mountpoint, and any mount options) are shared between the two types.

Parameters

name

The mount path for the mount.

Properties

ensure

The basic property that the resource should be in. Valid values are present, absent.

device

The device providing the mount. This can be whatever device is supporting by the mount, including network devices or devices specified by UUID rather than device path, depending on the operating system.

blockdevice

The device to fsck. This is property is only valid on Solaris, and in most cases will default to the correct value.

fstype

The mount type. Valid values depend on the operating system. This is a required option.

options

Mount options for the mount. More than one option should be specified as an array

pass

The pass in which the mount is checked.

atboot

Whether to mount the mount at boot. Not all platforms support this. Valid values are yes (also called true), no (also called false).

dump

Whether to dump the mount. Not all platform support this. Valid values are 1 or 0. or 2 on FreeBSD, Default is 0. Values can match /(0|1)/.

target

The file in which to store the mount table. Only used by those providers that write to disk.
