Destroy a filesystem
If necessary, you can remove a filesystem from the volume on which it is located.
Select the filesystem on the Management Console, right-click, and select Delete. All
persistent mounts for that filesystem will also be destroyed. The filesystem must be
unmounted when you use this option.
NOTE:
Any snapshots of the filesystem must be destroyed before the filesystem is destroyed.
Recover an evicted filesystem
To recover an evicted PSFS filesystem, you must unmount and then remount the
filesystem from all affected nodes in the cluster.
To unmount the filesystem, use the procedure described under Unmount a
filesystem, page 142.
You can then remount the filesystem:
• If a persistent mount is associated with the filesystem, you can activate the mount
from the Management Console. Right-click the filesystem that you have unmounted
and select Edit Persistent Mounts. Then, on the Edit Persistent Mounts window,
select the nodes where the filesystem should be mounted and click Activate.
• For filesystems without a persistent mount, follow the normal procedure to mount
the filesystem as described under Mount a filesystem, page 132.
Context Dependent Symbolic Links
A Context Dependent Symbolic Link (CDSL) contains a keyword that identifies a
particular location. When the operating system resolves the symbolic link, it translates
the keyword into the appropriate pathname. For example, a CDSL could contain the
keyword HOSTNAME, which resolves to the hostname of the server where you are
logged in.
A CDSL is created with the ln -s command. The symbolic link must be located on
a PSFS filesystem; however, the target can be on either a PSFS or non-PSFS filesystem.
