Hi all,
i am facing the problem to mount the dvd on the rx3600 server. the OS version is 11.31 ia64. it is fresh installation. before i tried the same command, it was working. now its having some problem.
i put the command to mount dvd on my server that is

#mount /dev/deviceFileSystem/Usb/MassStorage/dsk/disk@hp-1008+294=A60020000001 /dvd
message is
mount: /dev/deviceFileSystem/Usb/MassStorage/dsk/disk@hp-1008+294=A60020000001: unrecognized file system.

Hi,

Is this with the virtual media on the ILO2 ?
If it's, you should reset your MP (Not the server), do your again your distant share and try another time to mount your DVD.

I've already got this error and it was because I forget to umount the FS on the server before unshare the vMedia on the ILO2 and mount another iso file.

Hope this helps.

Who wrote that DVD? Does /etc/fstab have an entry for that device so it knows how to mount it, with the right options?

there is no entry in fstab for cdrom or dvd.

>there is no entry in fstab for cdrom or dvd.

Then either you can use SMH/SAM to add one or you can copy the info about mount options in these threads:
