Soft link to a mount point

[uadm26]

Hi, guys
I have an issue about using soft link to a filesystem. That option can decrease performance?
I use that choice instead of change filesystem's name.

I'm not sure if you can use a mountpoint to a softlink since all mountpoints exist in /etc/fstab and /etc/mountab. So experiment and reboot to see if it takes.

As for performance issues, I've never seen any performance problems using softlinks except with nfs file systems.

Soft links dont affect performance, because its
only a pointer to the inode
