Solaris 10 7/07 HW What's New

The volfsUtility

This enhancement to the volfs utility is new in the Solaris 10 6/06 release.

The volume management daemon, vold, is now managed by the Service Management Facility (SMF). This means you can use the svcadm disable command to disable the following new volfs service, if appropriate:


# svcadm disable volfs

You can identify the status of the volfs service by using this command:


$ svcs volfs
STATE          STIME    FMRI
online         Sep_29   svc:/system/filesystem/volfs:default

For more information, see the smf(5), volfs(7FS), and vold(1M) man pages.

For more information about managing the volfs service, see What’s New in Removable Media? in System Administration Guide: Devices and File Systems.
