mount -a

Dear all,

Would someone please tell me where "mount -a" or "mount -v" or "mount -p" came from. I could not find it in
#man mount

Thanks in advance.
Tom.

Try "man 1m mount" instead, I think you will find it there.

Not sure if this is what you are asking but...

which mount gives /usr/sbin/mount

However, "man 1m mount" at the bottom shows

Berkeley, and Sun Microsystems.

Hi Tom:

In the HP-UX manpages the 'mount' command you seek is in the '1M' section for administrative commands:

# man -k mount

...would have helped assuming you had/have a 'whatis' database built from 'catman' (q.v.).

Regards!
