What were you trying to do?
% fs mkm foo user.shabby -c zone
% fs lsm foo
'foo' is a mount point for volume '#zone:user.shabby'
% ls foo
foo: No such file or directory
% fs rmm foo
% fs mkm foo user.shabby -c zone.mit.edu
% ls foo
[files listed here]
What's wrong:
It lets me shoot myself in the foot.
What should have happened:
one of three things. Either
1) I should have gotten a warning such as you get when typing:
% fs mkm foo user.shaby -c zone
fs: warning, volume user.shaby does not exist in cell zone.
or 2) it should have worked with just 'zone' as the cell in
the mountpoint...
or 3) it should have expanded it to zone.mit.edu automatically
when I fs mkm'ed it...
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
... none, I guess.
