MOUNTPOINT(1) Linux System Administrator's Manual MOUNTPOINT(1)NAME
mountpoint - see if a directory is a mountpoint
SYNOPSIS
/bin/mountpoint [-q] [-d] /path/to/directory
/bin/mountpoint -x /dev/device
DESCRIPTION
Mountpoint checks if the directory is a mountpoint.
OPTIONS -q Be quiet - don't print anything.
-d Print major/minor device number of the filesystem on stdout.
-x Print major/minor device number of the blockdevice on stdout.
EXIT STATUS
Zero if the directory is a mountpoint, non-zero if not.
NOTES
Symbolic links are not followed, except when the -x option is used. To force following symlinks, add a trailing slash to the path of the
directory.
The name of the command is misleading when the -x option is used, but the option is useful for comparing if a directory and a device match
up, and there is no other command that can print the info easily.

mounting - event signalling that a filesystem is mounting
SYNOPSIS
mounting DEVICE=DEVICE MOUNTPOINT=MOUNTPOINT TYPE=TYPE OPTIONS=OPTIONS [ENV]...
DESCRIPTION
The mounting event is generated by the mountall(8) daemon when it is about to mount a filesystem. mountall(8) will wait for all services
started by this event to be running, all tasks started by this event to have finished and all jobs stopped by this event to be stopped
before proceeding with mounting the filesystem.
The DEVICE, MOUNTPOINT, TYPE and OPTIONS environment variables contain the values of the fstab(5) fields for this mountpoint.
EXAMPLE
A tool that should be run before mounting the /var filesystem might use:
start on mounting MOUNTPOINT=/var
task

Hello.
What's the best way to ensure that a NFS filesystem mounted from a disk-cabine (NAS) is accessible?
My proposal:
1. ping to the ip of the cabine
2. verify filesystem is mounted
3. touch a file inside the /mountpoint
Any other suggestions?
Thank you! (2 Replies)
