FIXNMVTOC(8,C) AIX Commands Reference FIXNMVTOC(8,C) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- fixnmvtoc PURPOSE Modifies a minidisk's mount point name on the VTOC. SYNTAX +------------+ /usr/sys/bin/fixnmvtoc ---| |--- old_name --- new_name +-- device --+ DESCRIPTION When a mount point on the VTOC is out of sync with the mount points in the /etc/filesystems file, the minidisks command will not work properly. The system administrator may want to run fixnmvtoc to change the VTOC to be in sync with the /etc/filesystems file. However, if the mount point on the VTOC is named correctly and the /etc/filesystems file is wrong, run the mdrc command to fix the entries in the /etc/filesystems. The fixnmvtoc command lets you change the mount point of the minidisk that currently has the mount point of old_name to new_name. If the device option is specified, the conversion takes place only on the device specified. This is necessary in the case where multiple minidisks have the same mount point on the VTOC. If the old_name of the mount point that currently exists on the VTOC is unknown, the dumpcfg command can be used to show the mount points on the VTOC for the specified device: /etc/dumpcfg device NOTE: The operation of fixnmvtoc is for system and diagnostic purposes only. The interface may change in the future. EXAMPLES 1. To change the mount point on the VTOC from /u1 to /u3 /usr/sys/bin/fixnmvtoc /u1 /u3 2. To change the mount point on the VTOC from /u1 to /u3 for /dev/hd3 only /usr/sys/bin/fixnmvtoc /dev/hd3 /u1 /u3 Processed October 11, 1991 FIXNMVTOC(8,C) 1 FIXNMVTOC(8,C) AIX Commands Reference FIXNMVTOC(8,C) RELATED INFORMATION In this book: "mdrc" and "minidisks."
