Here’s how to setup a XFS volume.
file -s /dev/nvme2n1 mkfs -t xfs /dev/nvme2n1 |
Mount to /data.
mkdir /data mount /dev/nvme2n1 /data |
Add to /etc/fstab.
vim /etc/fstab # # UUID=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx /data xfs defaults 0 0 |
fstab
AWS EFS /etc/fstab
To automatically mount a EFS volume after each reboot, you’ll need to add the following format to /etc/fstab.
You can use the DNS name given by AWS.
fs-12345678:/ /mnt/efs efs defaults,_netdev 0 0 |
Or the IP address.
10.0.0.22:/ /mnt/efs efs defaults,_netdev 0 0 |
Mount all with fake and verbose.
mount -fav |
NFS Client
Services to check.
chkconfig nfs on service rpcbind start service nfs start mount -a |
If missing, install it.
yum install nfs-utils nfs-utils-lib |
Mount it.
mount -a mount 192.168.1.200:/home /mnt/nfs/home |
Add to /etc/fstab.
10.10.10.10:/home on /mnt/nfs/home type nfs (rw,noatime,nolock,bg,nfsvers=2,intr,tcp,actimeo=1800,addr=10.10.10.10) |
Add nofail
The /etc/fstab file allow volumes to be automatically mounted on bootup. Add nofail in your automated mounts to prevent instances from hanging on boot. Nofail makes the instance to boot even if there are errors with the mounted volume.
UUID=aebf131c-6957-451e-8d34-ec978d9581ae /data xfs defaults,nofail 0 2 |
Adding a XFS Volume
Add a disk volume via cloud console. Then perform the following commands:
# check the new block lsblk # format fdisk /dev/sdc # create file system mkfs.xfs -f /dev/sdc1 # get uuid blkid /dev/sdc1 # vi /etc/fstab UUID="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" /mnt/directory xfs defaults 0 0 # mount mount -a |
