Moving the /store file system to a Fibre Channel Solution
You can move the JSA data that is maintained in the /store file system and mount the /store file system to a Fibre Channel (FC) device partition.
- After the JSA installation, connect JSA with fibre channel and restart.
-
Stop the JSA services by typing the following commands in the order specified:
systemctl stop hostcontext systemctl stop ecs-ec-ingress systemctl stop tomcat systemctl stop hostservices systemctl stop systemStabMon systemctl stop crond
-
Unmount the file systems by typing the following commands:
umount /store
The /transient file system is mounted only when the /store file system is XFS.
-
Create the /store_old directory by typing the following
command:
mkdir /store_old
-
Derive the device partition universal unique identifier (UUID) by typing the following
command:
blkid /dev/partition
- Edit the /etc/fstab file to update the existing /store file system mount point to /store_old.
-
Add a mount point for the /store file system by adding the
following text to the /etc/fstab file:
-
If the file system is XFS and you are not using HA, add the following text:
UUID=uuid /store xfs inode64,logbsize=256k,noatime,nobarrier 0 0
-
If the file system is XFS and you are using HA, add the following text:
UUID=uuid /store xfs inode64,logbsize=256k,noatime,noauto,nobarrier 0 0
-
If the file system is ext4 and you are not using HA, add the following text:
UUID=uuid /store ext4 noatime,nobarrier 0 0
-
If the file system is ext4 and you are using HA, add the following text:
UUID=uuid /store ext4 noatime,noauto,nobarrier 0 0
Save and close the file.

-
Mount the /store file system to the FC device partition by typing
the following command:
mount /store
-
Mount the /store_old file system to the local disk by typing the
following command:
mount /store_old
-
Copy the data to the Fibre Channel partition by typing the following command:
cp -af /store_old/* /store
-
Unmount /store_old by typing the following command:
umount /store_old
-
Remove the /store_old directory by typing the following
command:
rmdir /store_old
- Edit the /etc/fstab file to remove the /store_old mount point entry.
-
Start the JSA services by typing the following commands in the order specified:
systemctl start crond systemctl start systemStabMon systemctl start hostservices systemctl start tomcat systemctl start ecs-ec-ingress systemctl start hostcontext
-
Remove the local copy of /store from the logical volume manager
(LVM) by typing the following command:
lvchange -an /dev/storerhel/store 2>/dev/null lvrename /dev/storerhel/store /dev/storerhel/storeold 2>/dev/null
-
Verify the Fibre Channel mount point by typing the following command:
df -h
