4.2. Mounting a File System
Before you can mount a GFS file system, the file system must exist (refer to Section 4.1, “Creating a File System”), the volume where the file system exists must be activated, and the supporting clustering and locking systems must be started (refer to Chapter 3, Getting Started and Configuring and Managing a Red Hat Cluster. After those requirements have been met, you can mount the GFS file system as you would any Linux file system.
To manipulate file ACLs, you must mount the file system with the
-o
acl
mount option. If a file system is mounted without the -o
acl
mount option, users are allowed to view ACLs (with getfacl
), but are not allowed to set them (with setfacl
).
Usage
Mounting Without ACL Manipulation
mount BlockDevice MountPoint
Mounting With ACL Manipulation
mount -o acl BlockDevice MountPoint
-o
acl- GFS-specific option to allow manipulating file ACLs.
BlockDevice
- Specifies the block device where the GFS file system resides.
MountPoint
- Specifies the directory where the GFS file system should be mounted.
Example
In this example, the GFS file system on
/dev/vg01/lvol0
is mounted on the /mydata1
directory.
mount /dev/vg01/lvol0 /mydata1
Complete Usage
mountBlockDevice MountPoint
-ooption
The
-o option
argument consists of GFS-specific options (refer to Table 4.2, “GFS-Specific Mount Options”) or acceptable standard Linux mount -o
options, or a combination of both. Multiple option
parameters are separated by a comma and no spaces.
Note
The
mount
command is a Linux system command. In addition to using GFS-specific options described in this section, you can use other, standard, mount
command options (for example, -r
). For information about other Linux mount
command options, see the Linux mount
man page.
Table 4.2, “GFS-Specific Mount Options” describes the available GFS-specific
-o option
values that can be passed to GFS at mount time.
Note
This table includes descriptions of options that are used with local file systems only For the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 release and later Red Hat does not support the use of GFS as a single-node file system. Red Hat will continue to support single-node GFS file systems for existing customers.
Option | Description | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
acl | Allows manipulating file ACLs. If a file system is mounted without the acl mount option, users are allowed to view ACLs (with getfacl ), but are not allowed to set them (with setfacl ). | ||||||
| Forces GFS to treat the file system as a multihost file system. By default, using lock_nolock automatically turns on the localcaching and localflocks flags. | ||||||
| Tells GFS that it is running as a local file system. GFS can then turn on selected optimization capabilities that are not available when running in cluster mode. The localcaching flag is automatically turned on by lock_nolock . | ||||||
|
| ||||||
lockproto= | Allows the user to specify which locking protocol to use with the file system. If LockModuleName is not specified, the locking protocol name is read from the file system superblock. | ||||||
locktable= | For a clustered file system, allows the user to specify which locking table to use with the file system. | ||||||
oopses_ok |
This option allows a GFS node to not panic when an oops occurs. (By default, a GFS node panics when an oops occurs, causing the file system used by that node to stall for other GFS nodes.) A GFS node not panicking when an oops occurs minimizes the failure on other GFS nodes using the file system that the failed node is using. There may be circumstances where you do not want to use this option — for example, when you need more detailed troubleshooting information. Use this option with care.
Note: This option is turned on automatically if
lock_nolock locking is specified; however, you can override it by using the ignore_local_fs option.
| ||||||
upgrade | Upgrade the on-disk format of the file system so that it can be used by newer versions of GFS. | ||||||
errors=panic|withdraw | When errors=panic is specified, file system errors will cause a kernel panic. The default behavior, which is the same as specifying errors=withdraw , is for the system to withdraw from the file system and make it inaccessible until the next reboot; in some cases the system may remain running. For information on the GFS withdraw function, see Section 4.16, “The GFS Withdraw Function”. |
