How to Mount the Metadata Server

Before You Begin

Before you can mount the metadata server of a shared file system, the fsmgmtd daemon must be running and available on the metadata server. For more information about this daemon, see the Sun QFS Installation and Upgrade Guide.

  1. From the Manage Hosts menu or the Managed Hosts page, choose the name of the server that is acting as the metadata server for the shared file system.

    The File Systems Summary page is displayed.

  2. Scroll through the table and click the shared file system for which you want to mount the metadata server.

    The File System Details page is displayed.

  3. Select the radio button next to the metadata server that you want to mount.
  4. From the Operations menu, choose Mount.

    The metadata server is redisplayed with the mounted value in its Mount State column.
