File System mount problems

[Kwahae_1]

Hi all,
I rebooted my machine and one of the file systems refused to mount with the following message:
#mount -a
vxfs mount: mount option(s) incompatible with file system /dev/vgora/oralvtmp

See attached for some details.
Please help?

HI

checklist the following concerns

1.vgdisplay -v vgora and check the status of VG and LV
2.try to mount with defaults options in /etc/fstab

/dev/vgora/oralvtmp /oralvtmp vxfs defaults 0 2

after that do the following steps

umount the file system umount /mountpoint and run the command:
#fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vgXX/rlvolX

or

With Online JFS or Advanced JFS just run the command:

#fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /mountpoint

Now the fstab entry for largefiles can be put back in, however the entry is not
needed for largefiles to be activated. Once the file system is setup for
largefiles, it will now be enabled for largefiles anytime it is mounted.

This same error could occur if nolargefiles is an option in /etc/fstab, and the
file system has large files enabled.

NOTE: To see if a file system is set to largefiles or nolargefiles do one of
the following:

1.) fsadm -F vxfs /mountpoint (vxfs only)
2.) mkfs -F vxfs -m /dev/vgXX/lvolX (vxfs only)
3.) fstyp -v /dev/vgXX/lvolX | grep f_flag
(f_flag: 0->nolargefiles, f_flag: 16->largefiles)
4.) fsadm -F hfs /dev/vgXX/rlvolX (hfs only)

Hi K,

The problem is that in between lv and mount point. check these two entries in /etc/fstab
/dev/vgora/oratmp /tmp vxfs rw,suid,nolargefiles,delaylog,datainlog 0 2
/dev/vgora/oralvtmp /oratmp vxfs rw,suid,nolargefiles,delaylog,datainlog 0 2

You have used lv name oratmp as a mount point for diff lv ie. oralvtmp
