Unmount a volume on a client

You can unmount a volume from a client computer. A user whose client computer has
Mac OS X Lion can also unmount a SAN volume by using the Xsan pane of System
Preferences, provided the user knows an administrator name and password for the
client computer. A user can also unmount a SAN volume from a client computer
temporarily by ejecting it in the Finder, but the volume remounts after a few moments.
