ProcedureHow to Access CD-ROM Applications With Autofs


Note –

Use this procedure if you are not using Volume Manager.


  1. Become superuser or assume an equivalent role.

    Roles contain authorizations and privileged commands. For more information about roles, see Configuring RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Security Services. To configure a role with the Primary Administrator profile, see Chapter 2, Working With the Solaris Management Console (Tasks), in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration.

  2. Update the autofs map.

    Add an entry for the CD-ROM file system, which should resemble the following:


    hsfs     -fstype=hsfs,ro     :/dev/sr0

    The CD-ROM device that you intend to mount must appear as a name that follows the colon.
