Configuring the Mount Point for the Secondary HA Host
You must configure the mount point on the secondary high-availability (HA) host for the file system that is moved to a Fibre Channel storage device.
- Using SSH, log in to the secondary HA host as the root user.
-
Derive the UUID by typing the following command:
blkid /dev/<partition>
-
Update the kernel with the Fibre Channel partition data by typing the following
command:
partprobe
Note:If you see a warning error message that the kernel cannot read the partition table, type the following command: ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/<UUID>. If no output is displayed, then restart the secondary HA host by typing reboot.
-
If you are moving the /store directory, unmount the file systems
by typing the following command:
umount /store
The /transient file system is mounted only when the /store file system is XFS.
-
If you redirected the /store file system to an offboard device,
choose one of the following options to edit the /etc/fstab
file.
-
If the /store file system is an XFS file system, update the following lines. For each line, copy the text into a text editor, remove any line breaks, and paste as a single line.
UUID=<uuid> /store xfs inode64,logbsize=256k,noatime,noauto,nobarrier 0 0
-
If the /store file system is ext4, update the following line:
UUID=<uuid> /store ext4 defaults,noatime,noauto,nobarrier 0 0
-
-
If you are moving the /store/ariel file system to an offboard
device, choose one of the following options to edit the /etc/fstab
file.
-
If the /store/ariel file system is an XFS file system, update the following lines. For each line, copy the text into a text editor, remove any line breaks, and paste as a single line.
UUID=<uuid> /store/ariel xfs inode64,logbsize=256k,noatime, noauto,nobarrier 0 0
-
If the /store/ariel file system is ext4, update the following line:
UUID=<uuid> /store/ariel ext4 defaults,noatime,noauto,nobarrier 0 0
-
-
If you are moving the /store file system, remove the local copy of
/store by typing the following command:
lvchange -an /dev/storerhel/store 2>/dev/null lvrename /dev/storerhel/store /dev/storerhel/storeold 2>/dev/null
