Solaris Common Messages and Troubleshooting Guide

umount: warning: /string not in mnttab

Cause

This message occurs when the superuser attempts to unmount a file system that is not mounted. Subdirectories of file systems, such as /var, cannot be unmounted.

Action

Run the mount(1M) or df(1M) command to see which file systems are mounted. If you really want to unmount one of them, specify the existing mount point.
