Curtis,
Can you only use it locally ?? So if you
want info from remote clients you need to do an rsh or something similar ???

I believe you want the
bpmount command.

I’d like to obtain a list of the file systems
on our unix clients for reporting. Bpcoverage uses some type of mechanism to
obtain this list.
Can anyone provide further insight as to how
bpcoverage obtains a list of the remote client’s file systems?
I have run strings against the binary and found the
function, “get_mount_info”
The truss –eai command has not yet yielded any
information to help me discover how bpcoverage works.
bpdir does NOT appear to provide the list of remote
file systems, like df, Instead it is more of a directory listing like ls which
is not sufficient.
Bpmount does provide this information but I have not
yet determined how to run this remotely against another host.
Any information on this topic is greatly appreciated.
