DFSHARES_NFS(8) Maintenance Commands and Procedures DFSHARES_NFS(8)

NAME

dfshares_nfs - list available NFS resources from remote systems

SYNOPSIS

dfshares [-F nfs] [-h] [server]...

DESCRIPTION

dfshares provides information about resources available to the host
through NFS. The -F flag may be omitted if NFS is the first file
system type listed in the file /etc/dfs/fstypes.


The query may be restricted to the output of resources available from
one or more servers.


dfshares without arguments displays all resources shared on the local
system, regardless of file system type.


Specifying server displays information about the resources shared by
each server. Server can be any system on the network. If no server
is specified, then server is assumed to be the local system.


The output of dfshares consists of an optional header line
(suppressed with the -h flag) followed by a list of lines containing
whitespace-separated fields. For each resource, the fields are:

resource server access transport


where

resource
Specifies the resource name that must be given to the
mount(8) command.


server
Specifies the system that is making the resource
available.


access
Specifies the access permissions granted to the client
systems; however, dfshares cannot determine this
information for an NFS resource and populates the field
with a hyphen (-).


transport
Specifies the transport provider over which the resource
is shared; however, dfshares cannot determine this
information for an NFS resource and populates the field
with a hyphen (-).


A field may be null. Each null field is indicated by a hyphen (-)
unless the remainder of the fields on the line are also null; in
which case, the hyphen may be omitted.

OPTIONS

-F nfs
Specify the NFS file system type


-h
Suppress header line in output.
