DRVSPACE



DRVSPACE /MOUNT

Establishes a connection between a compressed volume file (CVF) and a drive letter so that you can use the files the CVF contains. DriveSpace usually mounts CVFs automatically. You need to mount a CVF only if you previously unmounted it, or if the CVF is located on a floppy disk and Automount is disabled. Syntax DRVSPACE /MOUNT[=nnn] drive1: [/NEWDRIVE=drive2:] Parameter drive1: Specifies the drive that contains the compressed volume file you want to mount. You must specify a drive letter. Switches /MOUNT=nnn Directs DriveSpace to mount the compressed volume file with the filename extension specified by the nnn parameter. For example, to mount a CVF named DRVSPACE.001, you would specify /MOUNT=001. If you omit the nnn parameter, DriveSpace attempts to mount the compressed volume file named DRVSPACE.000. The /MOUNT switch can be abbreviated as /MO. /NEWDRIVE=drive2: Specifies the drive letter to assign to the new drive. This switch is optional; if you don't specify a drive letter, DriveSpace assigns the new drive the next available drive letter. This switch can be abbreviated as /NEW.
