After creating a VxFS file system, mount the file system using the mount command.
By default, the mountcommand tries to enable Quick I/O. If Quick I/O is not installed or licensed, no error messages are displayed unless you explicitly specify the -o qiomount option. If necessary, you can turn the Quick I/O option off at mount time or you can remount the file system with the -o noqiooption.
Before mounting a file system, review the following:
To mount a file system
Use the mount command as follows:
# /usr/sbin/mount -V vxfs [generic_options] [-r] \ [-o specific_options] special /mount_point
For example, to mount a file system named /db01 that supports large files on volume /dev/vx/dsk/PRODdg/db01:
# mkdir /db01
# /usr/sbin/mount -V vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vx/dsk/PRODdg/db01 \ /db01
If you would like /db01 to be mounted automatically after rebooting, add an entry for it in /etc/filesystems as follows:
/db01: dev = "/dev/vx/dsk/PRODdg/db01" vfs = vxfs check = true mount = true options = rw,qio,largefiles account = false
If you do not need to use Quick I/O files, set noqio instead of qio as one of the options.
