Answer:

When you share a resource, you make it available for mounting by remote systems. You can share a resource in these ways: By using the share or shareall command. By adding an entry to the /etc/dfs/dfstab (distributed file system table) file and rebooting the system.

Mounting and Unmounting File Systems

Before you can access the files on a file system, you need to mount the file system. Mounting a file system attaches that file system to a directory (mount point) and makes it available to the system. The root (/) file system is always mounted. Any other file system can be connected or disconnected from the root (/) file system.

When you mount a file system, any files or directories in the underlying mount point directory are unavailable as long as the file system is mounted. These files are not permanently affected by the mounting process, and they become available again when the file system is unmounted. However, mount directories are typically empty, because you usually do not want to obscure existing files.

For example, the figure below shows a local file system, starting with a root (/) file system and subdirectories sbin, etc, and opt.
