The typical problem is that some process is still using the mounted filesystem. The fuser utility lists processes using a file or files in a filesystem.

Mounting Solaris CDROMs So you've shelled out $20 for downloading the solaris ISO images. And you suddenly realize you dont have a CDROM burner. You now have a slight problem, because using the normal 'mount a file as a filesystem' trick, only works for the first filesystem in that file. Happily, there is a workaround that you can try. How to mount the CD-ROM on Solaris 10 without knowing the CD-ROM device name? Solaris data-cd. How to install ryl2 patch. Will renable the daemon and mount automatically the cdroms under /cdrom/cdrom# where # will be a number. Find the DVD-ROM path in FreeBSD.

To determine what processes may be preventing a filesystem's amount, the -c switch should be used: fuser -c /cdrom This command will list the process ids of processes with open files in the filesystem mounted under /mnt. The characters following the pid provide additional information about the file: c - the process is using the file as its current working directory m - the file is mapped with mmap o - the process is using it as an open file r - the file is the root directory of the process t - the process is accessing the file as a text file y - this file is the controlling terminal for the process. Add to: Before unmounting a filesystem, Solaris checks to ensure that no files are open to prevent loss of data. The following are steps that can be followed when a filesystem won't unmount.

Brian's opinion first, who can ever argue when something is free? I really like the fact that sun made a dvd version available as well. With the wide availability of dvd drives it's much easier to put the operating system on a single dvd than having to burn and carry around multiple cds to install the operating system. Of course, you do need access to a dvd burner. Sun is making a great move by making solaris 10 open source. The money is in the support, which is why companies that distribute linux make money.

It's no surprise that below the download options for solaris 10 there is a link. A basic service plan starts at us$120 and is what you need if you want solaris 10 updates. That's not a bad deal when you figure that's for up to 8 physical processors. Best of all, multi-core processors are still counted as a single processor.
