2. You can't check it's mounting status with a shell, because a shell is a means to execute programs. You can use such a program - "mount", "df", probably some more - to find out if a filesystem is mounted, but that would be irregardless of the shell used.
Not true, a shell has it's on internal commands, and these can be used to process information. As a general rule shell internal commands tend to be much more efficient that external programs because the no code needs to be loaded and executed (beyond the shell it's self) to do the processing.
For example the following bash script will check if a filesystem is mounted, by reading the /proc/mounts list:
Hello ,
I 've got a problem with the root partition on my SCO 5.0.5 .
When I check the disk with df or mount , I can 't see the root filesystem .

How can I check which partition /usr are mounted on ? Usually this is mounted on root (/). If I want to move /usr to another partition, how do I do this ?

I'd like to make a wrapper bash script that will make sure that an nfs mount is mounted before launching a program that depends on the mount being active. Basically:
1) Check to see if the mount is active
2) If it's not active, try to mount it
3) If it won't mount because the nfs server is... (3 Replies)

Hi
I need to have a piece of code that check if all file systems are mounted or not.
I have to pieces of information like the output of the bdfcommand, and the file /etc/fstab.
The first is:

Hi
I have the following piece of code, running on a solaris 10 O.S., that is not working for NFS file systems:

do
if df -k $vol | grep $vol > /dev/null
then

platform::shell
platform::shell(3tcl) Tcl Bundled Packages platform::shell(3tcl)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
platform::shell - System identification support code and utilities
SYNOPSIS
package require platform::shell ?1.1.4?
platform::shell::generic shell
platform::shell::identify shell
platform::shell::platform shell
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
The platform::shell package provides several utility commands useful for the identification of the architecture of a specific Tcl shell.
This package allows the identification of the architecture of a specific Tcl shell different from the shell running the package. The only
requirement is that the other shell (identified by its path), is actually executable on the current machine.
While for most platform this means that the architecture of the interrogated shell is identical to the architecture of the running shell
this is not generally true. A counter example are all platforms which have 32 and 64 bit variants and where a 64bit system is able to run
32bit code. For these running and interrogated shell may have different 32/64 bit settings and thus different identifiers.
For applications like a code repository it is important to identify the architecture of the shell which will actually run the installed
packages, versus the architecture of the shell running the repository software.
COMMANDS
platform::shell::identify shell
This command does the same identification as platform::identify, for the specified Tcl shell, in contrast to the running shell.
platform::shell::generic shell
This command does the same identification as platform::generic, for the specified Tcl shell, in contrast to the running shell.
platform::shell::platform shell
This command returns the contents of tcl_platform(platform) for the specified Tcl shell.
KEYWORDS
operating system, cpu architecture, platform, architecture
