Diskarbitrationd

diskarbitrationd -- disk arbitration daemon

SYNOPSIS

diskarbitrationd [-d]

DESCRIPTION

diskarbitrationd listens for connections from clients, notifies clients
of the appearance of disks and filesystems, and governs the mounting of
filesystems and the claiming of disks amongst clients.

diskarbitrationd is accessed via the Disk Arbitration framework.

Options:

-d Report detailed information in /var/log/diskarbitrationd.log.
This option forces diskarbitrationd to run in the foreground.

The file /etc/fstab is consulted for user-defined mount points, indexed
by filesystem, in the mount point determination for a filesystem. Each
filesystem can be identified by its UUID or by its label, using the con-
structs ``UUID'' or ``LABEL'', respectively. For example:

UUID=DF000C7E-AE0C-3B15-B730-DFD2EF15CB91 /export ufs ro
UUID=FAB060E9-79F7-33FF-BE85-E1D3ABD3EDEA none hfs rw,noauto
LABEL=The\040Volume\040Name\040Is\040This none msdos ro
