Changing the name of the mountpoint of a logical volume

Hi there --

We have a system running 11.00, and I would like to change the name of the mountpoint of a logical volume.

Is this something that can be done within SAM, or is there a command syntax that should be used instead? Thanks.

Re: Changing the name of the mountpoint of a logical volume

This is done in /etc/fstab.
The mount point must exist.

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Hi Andrew,

# bdf | grep mount_point
# umount /mount_point
# mv mount_point new_name
change /etc/fstab
# mount new_name

As well as checking the /etc/fstab, if you are in an MC Service Guard environment, check the lvmrc file as well.
Changing a mount point is not so uncommon so I'm sure you'll handle this well.
