SNFS
Step 5 Initialize StorNext FS. Enter:
#cd /usr/cvfs/bin/cvmkfs <file_system_name>
#cp ../examples/fsmlist.example ./fsmlist
This step cannot be undone and all data on the file system will be CAUTION lost, so make sure you are ready to initialize the file system before
you proceed.
Step 6 Create the fsmlist file. Enter:
#cd /usr/cvfs/config
#cp ../examples/fsmlist.example ./fsmlist
Step 7 Edit /usr/cvfs/config/fsmlist so that it contains the names of all StorNext File Systems.
Client Configuration
Step 1 Create the fsnameservers file by copying /usr/cvfs/examples/ fsnameservers.example and renaming it. Enter:
#cd /usr/cvfs/config
#cp ../examples/fsnameservers.example ./fsnameservers
Step 2 Edit /usr/cvfs/config/fsnameservers so that it contains the hostname or IP address of all StorNext FS servers. This file must be identical across all servers and clients.
For information about failover environments, refer to the cvfs_failover man page.
Start the System
Manually start the StorNext FS server. Enter: # /etc/init.d/cvfs start
The StorNext FS service files for the new file system are now started and running in the background on the StorNext FS server.
