Diff B/W MountPath and MountPoint

What is the difference between attributes MountPoint and MountPath of Mount Type resources?

I am able to find MountPath in Windows while on Linux I can see MountPoint only.

 

I have a script using a command which is trying  to get MountPath but is failing on Linux.

The command is given below:

hares -display -attribute MountPath -type Mount

It is just different terminolgy as it is different O/S's so on Windows you have:

MountPath: The drive letter or path to an empty NTFS folder that is assigned to partition being mounted

And on Linux you have:

MountPoint: Directory for mounting filesystem.

Resource Attributes are different for Windows and Linux.

See 'Storage Agents' in Bundled Agents Reference Guides.

Attribute definitions)
