As I have said: Linux will not unmount the filesystem and expose the directory that served as mount point, it will produce I/O errs on filesystem accesses. I suggest you test for yourself. As for the administrator fumbles and starts the logging without the drive, that is an entirely different question, an easily solved one. Please keep them separate. Regards, -- Nicolas George
