Mount issue

[joaotelles]

Hello,
Im a new user of SOLARIS and im facing a question..
Can I mount the same mount point to two diferents file systems..

Ex. /usr mounted on /hd01 and /hd02

2- I have a /hd1 with /usr1 mounted (10Gb)
and /hd2 with /usr2 mounted (5Gb) , I want to swap the /usr1 (mount it on /hd1) and /usr2 (mount it on /hd2). Can I unmount then both and then mount as I want to, without any data loss?

Tks

You cannot have the same thing mounted twice.
/usr can only point to one place

The device is NOT mount point dependant.
/mnt1 is on /dev/dsk/c2t0d0s1
/mnt2 is on /dev/dsk/c2t0d0s2

you can unmount both (if not in use) and remount as opposite without any data loss.
/mnt2 is on /dev/dsk/c2t0d0s1
/mnt1 is on /dev/dsk/c2t0d0s2

This is useful if you need to move data to a larger drive.
