All other volume types fail to mount. 15 16 ## RETURN VALUE 17 The location of the mounted file system. On error an empty string and errno is 18 returned. 19 20 ## EXAMPLE 21 22 Mount specified volume. As Root: 23 ``` 24 # podman volume mount foo 25 /home/dwalsh/.local/share/containers/storage/volumes/foo/_data 26 ``` 27 28 In rootless mode, volume mounting only works after executing the podman unshare command to enter the user namespace. 29 ``` 30 $ podman unshare 31 # podman volume mount foo 32 /home/dwalsh/.local/share/containers/storage/volumes/foo/_data 33 ``` 34 35 ## SEE ALSO 36 **[podman(1)](podman.1.md)**, **[podman-volume(1)](podman-volume.1.md)**, **[podman-volume-unmount(1)](podman-volume-unmount.1.md)**, **[podman-unshare(1)](podman-unshare.1.md)**, **mount(8)**
