volmissing(1)			 User Commands			 volmissing(1)

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

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

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

       volmissing -p is the default action taken by vold(1M), the Volume  Man‐
       agement	daemon, when it needs to notify a user that the requested vol‐
       ume 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 run‐
		       ning, 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 con‐
					       figuration  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.
