2. Repeat step 1 for each device on the disk array.
Creating the mount table
Add the new devices to the /etc/fstab file to specify the automount parameters for each device.
1. Edit the /etc/fstab file to add one line for each device to be automounted.
Each line of the file contains: (A) device name, (B) mount point, (C) file system type (“ext3”),
(D) mount options (“defaults”), (E) enhance parameter (“1”), and (F) fsck pass 2.
Example
/dev/sdb /A5700F_ID08 ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/sdc /A5700F_ID09 ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/sdd /A5700F_ID10 ext3 defaults 1 2
A B C D E F
Make an entry for each device. After all the entries are made, save the file and exit the editor.
2. Reboot the system.
3. Display the mounted devices using the df –h command and verify that the devices were
automounted.
Example
# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Used% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 1.8G 890M 866M 51% /
