Setting Up StorNext FS on AIX 3-11
Mount StorNext FS on AIX
To mount StorNext FS:
Step 1 Create the StorNext FS mount directory. For example:
# mkdir /usr/clips
Step 2 Add the uniquely named StorNext FS-managed file system to the /etc/filesystems
file. Use cvfs as the vfs and file system type. The entry should be similar to this format:
/usr/clips:
dev = <file_system_name>
vfs = cvfs
mount = true
type = cvfs
verbose = true
acount = false
On startup or reboot of the StorNext FS server, StorNext FS automatically mounts any file
systems listed in the /etc/filesystems file.
Step 3 Return to Step 1 to repeat this procedure for each StorNext FS client.
After StorNext FS has been mounted on each client, the /usr/clips directory is
available to store and share data.
NOTE
If you do not want a cvfs mount point in your filesystems file, manually start a
file system using the cvadmin command. Then, mount the file system using the
mount command.
