filesystem(7)						 Miscellaneous Information Manual					     filesystem(7)

NAME

       filesystem - event signalling that filesystems have been mounted

SYNOPSIS

       filesystem [ENV]...

DESCRIPTION

       The  filesystem	event  is  generated by the mountall(8) daemon after it has mounted all filesystems listed in fstab(5).  mountall(8) emits
       this event as an informational signal, services and tasks started or stopped by this event will do so in parallel with other activity.

EXAMPLE

       A service that wishes to be running once filesystems are mounted might use:

	      start on filesystem

SEE ALSO

       mounting(7) mounted(7) virtual-filesystems(7) local-filesystems(7) remote-filesystems(7) all-swaps(7)
