Export a file system

Raul del Castillo_1 — Tue, 23 Jan 2007 07:53:14 GMT

I have created a file system ( in a new logical volume in a new volume group)and I need to export it to several clients. The problem is this file system replaces another one lost in a broken hard disk and must be identical I do not find this option in the graphic SAM, and I do not know how to make it. What must I do in the client part?
I do not know which tab files must I modify .

Raul,
under SAM -> "networking and communications" -> "networked File Systems" -> "exported local file systems"

Hi Raul,

On the server side, exports are declared in /etc/exports. As long as the new filesystem has the same mountpoint as the failed one, you shouldn't have to edit this file. Simply re-export via 'exportfs -a'.

On the client side, network mounts are declared in /etc/fstab. To re-mount all filesystems listed in fstab, 'mount -a'. To unmount a filesystem: 'umount '.
