NAME

umount.nfs, umount.nfs4 - unmount a Network File System

SYNOPSIS

umount.nfs*/ dir/ [-fvnrlh ]*

DESCRIPTION

umount.nfs and umount.nfs4 are a part of *nfs*(5) utilities package, which provides NFS client functionality.

umount.nfs4 and umount.nfs are meant to be used by the *umount*(8) command for unmounting NFS shares. This subcommand, however, can also be used as a standalone command with limited functionality.

dir is the directory on which the file system is mounted.

OPTIONS

-f
Force unmount the file system in case of unreachable NFS system.
-v
Be verbose.
-n
Do not update /etc/mtab. By default, an entry is created in /etc/mtab for every mounted file system. Use this option to skip deleting an entry.
-r
In case unmounting fails, try to mount read-only.
-l
Lazy unmount. Detach the file system from the file system hierarchy now, and cleanup all references to the file system as soon as it is not busy anymore.
-h
Print help message.

NOTE

For further information please refer *nfs*(5) and *umount*(8) manual pages.
