Example--Determining a File System's Type

The following example uses the /etc/vfstab to determine the type of the /export file system.

$ grep /export /etc/vfstab
/dev/dsk/c0t3d0s6   /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s6  /export ufs   2       yes    -
$ 

The following example uses the /etc/mnttab file to determine the file system type of the currently mounted diskette (mounted by volume management).

$ grep /floppy /etc/mnttab
/vol/dev/diskette0/unnamed_floppy   /floppy/unnamed_floppy  pcfs rw,nohidden,
nofoldcase,dev=16c0009      89103376
