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
