New volumes are not mounted automatically when added
to the system.
- /P
(NT2003)
- Removes the volume mount point from the specified
directory, dismounts the basic volume, and takes the
basic volume offline, making it unmountable. If other
processes are using the volume, closes any open handles
before dismounting the volume. Volumes dismounted
using /p are listed in the volumes list as
NOT MOUNTED UNTIL A VOLUME MOUNT POINT IS CREATED.
If the volume has more than one mount point, use
/D to remove the additional
mount points before using /p. You can make the basic
volume mountable again by assigning a volume mount
point.
- /R
(NT2003)
- Removes volume mount point directories and
registry settings for volumes that are no longer in
the system. Prevents volumes that were previously in
the system from being automatically mounted and given
their former volume mount point(s) when added back to
the system.
- /S
(NTXP)
- Itanium-based computers only.
Mounts the EFI System Partition on the specified drive.
- Volname
