NAME

       sharefs - Kernel sharetab filesystem

DESCRIPTION

       The sharefs filesystem describes the state of all shares currently loaded by the kernel. It is mounted during boot time as a read-only file
       at /etc/dfs/sharetab.

       Filesystem contents are dynamic and  reflect  the current set of shares in the system. File contents are described in sharetab(4).

       File contents can be modified as a result of share(1M), sharectl(1M), sharemgr(1M) and changing properties of a zfs(1M) data set.

       The module may not be unloaded dynamically by the kernel.

FILES

       /etc/dfs/sharetab    System record of shared file systems.
