After creating a VxFS file system, as a root user, mount the file system using the mount command.

See the man pages for the mount and the mount_vxfs commands for more information.

To mount a file system

Use the mount command as follows:

AIX

# /usr/sbin/mount -V vxfs special /mount_point

Linux

# /usr/sbin/mount -t vxfs special /mount_point

Where:

For example, to mount a file system named /db01 that supports large files on volume /dev/vx/dsk/PRODdg/db01

# /usr/sbin/mount -V vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vx/dsk/PRODdg/db01 \
 /db01
