virtual-filesystems(7)

NAME

   virtual-filesystems  -  event  signalling that virtual filesystems have
   been mounted

SYNOPSIS

   virtual-filesystems [ENV]...

DESCRIPTION

   The virtual-filesystems event is generated by  the  mountall(8)  daemon
   after  it  has  mounted  all  virtual  filesystems  listed in fstab(5).
   mountall(8) emits this event as an informational signal,  services  and
   tasks  started  or  stopped  by  this event will do so in parallel with
   other activity.

   This event is typically used by services that must be started in  order
   to mount other filesystems.  When this event occurs, common filesystems
   such as /usr  may  not  be  mounted.   For  most  normal  services  the
   filesystem(7) event is sufficient.

EXAMPLE

   A  service  that  wishes  to  be  running  once virtual filesystems are
   mounted might use:

          start on virtual-filesystems
