# zuluMount-cli(1)

command line tool that manages encrypted and unencrypted volumes

## NAME

zuluMount-cli - command line tool that manages encrypted and unencrypted volumes

## DESCRIPTION

zuluMount-cli is a tool that has a primary mission of opening and closing encrypted volumes as well as mounting and unmounting unecrypted volumes and opened encrypted ones.Its primary purpose is to do what tools like udisks does.\

## USAGE

usage: see examples below

options:\
 \-m -- mount a volume : arguments: -d volume\_path -z mount\_point -e mode(rw/ro)\
       \-- additional arguments for crypto\_LUKS,crypto\_PLAIN,crypto\_TCRYPT volumes, -p passphrase/-f keyfile\
 \-z -- mount point component to append to "/run/media/private/$USER/"\
 \-u -- unmount a volume: arguments: -d volume\_path\
 \-s -- print properties of an encrypted volume: arguments: -d volume\_path\
 \-o -- offset in sectors on where the volume starts in the volume.The volume is assumed to be plain type with this option\
       and the option must be given when -u or -s arguments are used with a volume opened with this option\
 \-M -- this option will create a mount point in "/run/media/private/$USER/" and a publicly accessible "mirror" in "/run/media/public/'\
 \-l -- print expanded list of all volumes\
 \-Y -- file system options\
 \-e -- mount options\
 \-t -- volume type to assume when unlocking a volume.Use "vera" when unlocking a VeraCrypt volume.\
 \-L -- must be used with -d,print properties of a volume specified by d option\
 \-P -- print a list of all volumes\
 \-A -- print a list of all volumes\
 \-S -- print a list of system volumes\
 \-N -- print a list of non system volumes\
 \-E -- print a list of mounted volumes\
 \-D -- get a device node address from its mapper path( mapper paths are usually located in /dev/mapper ). Required argument: -d\
 \-F -- path to truecrypt multiple keyfiles.Keyfiles are separated by "\\011" character sequence\
 examples:\
 mount a volume  : zuluMount-cli -m -d /dev/sdc1\
 unmount a volume: zuluMount-cli -u -d /dev/sdc1\
 mount and encrypted volume with a key "xyz" : zuluMount-cli -m -d /dev/sdc2 -p xyz\
