how do i unmount ?
hi all,

I am new to AIX as well as UNIX also ,i have a question

One of my program has created a new filesystem on the system.....

df shows :

/dev/fslv04 2031616 2030648 1% 3 1% /replicas/source

when i tried to umount the above filesystem by

umount -f /replicas/source

it says :

umount: 0506-349 Cannot unmount /dev/fslv04: The requested resource is busy.

I rebooted the system , then also problem still persists ...

what i want , is to remove the filesystem completely from the system

one option i tried is i commented out the corresponding entry in /etc/filesystems and given reboot , i guess , i have not seen the filesystem.

so my question is , is this way of doing is correct ? is there any otherway , i am totally confusing in how to remove this filesystem...

please help me
