Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting how to remove line from /etc/vfstab using shell / perl Post 302420937 by pseudocoder on Thursday 13th of May 2010 02:10:10 AM

General purpose:
Code:
sed '/pattern/d' file

Specific to the value from your example:
Code:
sed '/\/dev\/vx\/dsk\/appdg1\/mytestvol \/dev\/vx\/rdsk\/appdg1\/mytestvol \/mytest vxfs 3 no largefiles/d' vfstab

Note that these commands would not perform any "infile" changes.
You will have to redirect the output to a temporary file and overwrite the old file with that temporary file.
Better you rename your old file in e.g. vfstab.sav - after sed/before overwriting - if something goes wrong.
Hope I was clear Smilie

prtvtoc [-fhs] [-t vfstab] [-m mnttab] device DESCRIPTION
The prtvtoc command allows the contents of the label to be viewed. The command can be used only by the super-user. The device name can be the file name of a raw device in the form of /dev/rdsk/c?t?d?s2 or can be the file name of a block device in the form of /dev/dsk/c?t?d?s2. OPTIONS
The following options are supported: -f Report on the disk free space, including the starting block address of the free space, number of blocks, and unused parti- tions. -h Omit the headers from the normal output. -m mnttab Use mnttab as the list of mounted filesystems, in place of /etc/mnttab. -s Omit all headers but the column header from the normal output. -t vfstab Use vfstab as the list of filesystem defaults, in place of /etc/vfstab.
