NAME

volmissing − notify user that volume requested is not in the CD-ROM or floppy drive

SYNOPSIS

/usr/lib/vold/volmissing [-c] [-p] [-s] [-alias]

DESCRIPTION

volmissing informs a user when a requested volume is not available. Depending on the option selected, users are notified through their console window, syslogd(1M), or a mail message.

volmissing -p is the default action taken by vold(1M), the Volume Management daemon, when it needs to notify a user that the requested volume is not available. If you want to change this default event, modify the /etc/vold.conf file. See vold.conf(4).

You can change the notification method for your system by editing the vold.conf configuration file and providing a new option for volmissing in the notify entry under the Events category.

OPTIONS

-c

Send a message to the user’s console requesting the volume be inserted. To end the notification without inserting the requested volume, use volcancel(1).

-p

All volmissing events will be handled through a GUI, provided a window system is running on the console. If this option is specified, and no window system is running, all messages go to the system console.

-s

Send one message to the syslogd(1M).

-m alias

Send a mail message to the specified mail alias about the missing volume.

FILES

/etc/vold.conf

Volume Management daemon configuration file. Directs the Volume Management daemon to control certain devices, and causes action to be taken when specific criteria is met.

/usr/lib/vold/volmissing_popup

Pop-up used when the -p option is supplied and a window system is running.
