DISKARBITRATIOND(8)					    BSD System Manager's Manual 				       DISKARBITRATIOND(8)

NAME
     diskarbitrationd -- disk arbitration daemon

SYNOPSIS
     diskarbitrationd [-d]

DESCRIPTION
     diskarbitrationd listens for connections from clients, notifies clients of the appearance of disks and filesystems, and governs the mounting
     of filesystems and the claiming of disks amongst clients.

     diskarbitrationd is accessed via the Disk Arbitration framework.  This command is not intended to be invoked directly.

     Options:

     -d       Report detailed information in /var/log/diskarbitrationd.log.

     The file /etc/fstab is consulted for user-defined mount points, indexed by filesystem, in the mount point determination for a filesystem.
     Each filesystem can be identified by its UUID or by its label, using the constructs ``UUID'' or ``LABEL'', respectively.  For example:

	UUID=DF000C7E-AE0C-3B15-B730-DFD2EF15CB91 /export ufs	ro
	UUID=FAB060E9-79F7-33FF-BE85-E1D3ABD3EDEA none	  hfs	rw,noauto
	LABEL=The40Volume40Name40Is40This none	  msdos ro
