How 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.

    For information about roles, see “Using Privileged Applications” in System Administration Guide: Security Services.

  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 you intend to mount must appear as a name that follows the colon.
