Mounting the Storage on the Slave Renderer
After you configure read and write access on the storage filesystem, you create
a mount point on the Slave Renderer and configure the Slave Renderer to
automatically mount that filesystem.
NOTE You do not need to perform the tasks in this section if you are using the
BrowseD service with the Slave Renderer. See Using BrowseD with the Slave Ren-
derer (page 97).
To create a mount point on the Slave Renderer:
1 On the Slave Renderer, log in as root.
2 To go to the top level directory, in a terminal, type:
cd /
3 Create a directory for the mount point. For example, type:
mkdir /mnt/StorageMedia
4 Change the permissions on this directory to allow read/write access. For
example, type:
chmod 666 /mnt/StorageMedia
5 Mount the storage exported from the Master Station. For example, if the
storage on the Master Station is mounted under /mnt/StorageMedia type:
mount <Master Station>:/mnt/StorageMedia/ /mnt/StorageMedia
To configure the Slave Renderer to automatically mount the storage filesystem:
1 In a terminal, type:
vi /etc/fstab
2 Press Insert on the keyboard, and then add a line for the mount point
you just created:
<IP address>:/<exported filesystem> /<mount point> nfs
rw,bg,hard,intr 0 0
For example, type:
172.16.60.226:/mnt/StorageMedia /mnt/StorageMedia nfs
rw,bg,hard,intr 0 0
NOTE Both examples are single lines.
