Creating a File System Server

Creating a File System Server

The follow procedure describes how to create a file system server using the CLI.

Before initially executing any SNFS command line programs, you are required to source either the .profile or the .cshrc file. This updates the user environment with the SNFS environment variables.

If you are running sh, ksh, or bash, type:

. /usr/adic/.profile

For all other shells, type: source /usr/adic/.cshrc

Caution: Do not attempt to perform the procedures in this section unless you have completed Quantum’s StorNext training and are confident you understand all procedures. (You may perform these procedures if Professional Services is assisting you.)

1Install StorNext as described in the StorNext Installation Guide. Follow the instructions that pertain to your operating system.

2Create a list of system and FC disks by writing to a file in a format recognized by the cvlabel command. Type the following:

/usr/cvfs/bin/cvlabel -c > /usr/cvfs/config/cvlabels

The created file displays an entry for disk located by the /usr/cvfs/bin/ cvlabel command.

CvfsDisk_UNKNOWN /dev/sdb # host 4 lun 1 sectors 639570752 ...

CvfsDisk_UNKNOWN /dev/sdc # host 4 lun 2 sectors 639570752 ...

CvfsDisk_UNKNOWN /dev/sdd # host 4 lun 3 sectors 639570752 ...

3Edit the cvlabels file that has a list of all system and FC disks visible on the machine. Edit the file to remove all the system disks and any FC disks you do not want labeled, as well as FC disks that are already labeled.
