mount
attaches a file system to the Oracle ACFS hierarchy at the mount point that is the name of a directory. The mount happens on the node where the mount command was issued. The mount command returns an error if the file system is not in a dismounted state on this node.
It is not always possible to return the cause of a mount failure to the mount
command. When this happens Oracle ACFS writes the cause of the failure to the system console and associated system log file.
After mount
runs successfully, the MOUNTPATH
field in the V$ASM_VOLUME
view displays the directory name on which the file system is now mounted.
An Oracle ACFS file system should only be mounted on one mount point. The same mount point name should be used on all cluster members.
The mount
command lists all mounted file systems if it is run with no parameters.
root
privilege is required to run mount
.
Examples
The first example shows how to mount volume1-123
on the mount point /acfsmounts/acfs1
. The second example shows how to mount all the registered Oracle ACFS file systems. The dummy names (none
) have been entered for the device and directory as they are required, but not used, when the all
option is specified.
