Setup guide

NOTE If the command fails, redo your calculations starting from step 1.
5 Verify that the storage can be mounted by typing one of the following
commands:
■ For HP Z800 systems: mount /mnt/StorageMedia
■ For older systems: mount /mnt/stoneMedia
The storage should mount, as the DKU installation script should have
created the mount point directory for your storage (/mnt/StorageMedia
on HP Z800 workstations, or /mnt/stoneMedia on older workstations), as
well as the corresponding entry in the /etc/fstab file.
If you receive an error message and the storage does not mount, follow
the instructions in the next section to manually mount the storage.
Manually Creating a Mount Point and Mounting
the Storage
If the mount point directory for your storage was not created automatically
by the DKU, or if the storage does not mount, perform the following procedure
to create the mount point and mount the storage manually.
To create a mount point and mount the storage:
1 Create the directory that will serve as the mount point for the filesystem,
if it does not exist. For example:
mkdir /mnt/StorageMedia
WARNING Do not use the word “stonefs” as the name for your mount point
directory. “Stonefs” is a reserved word, and can cause issues if used as the
mount point directory name.
2 Mount the XFS filesystem from the logical volume /dev/vg00/lvol1 on the
directory you created in the previous step. For example:
mount -av -t xfs -o rw,noatime,inode64 /dev/vg00/lvol1
/mnt/StorageMedia
The filesystem is mounted as /mnt/StorageMedia.
3 Confirm that the storage is now mounted. Type:
df -h
The output should list /dev/mapper/vg00-lvol1 mounted on your mount
point directory. For example:
