Mount Disk Array on Server Guide
To mount a disk array onto a server, you need to follow these steps for configuration:
- Ensure that the disk array is properly connected to the server, recognized, and configured correctly.
- Access the operating system on the server, enter the disk management tool, and check the status and partitioning of the disk array.
- Select an available disk partition or create a new partition to mount the disk array based on the requirements.
- Format the selected partition to ensure that the file system format is compatible with the server operating system.
- Create a directory to serve as a mounting point, for example, in a Linux system you can use the command mkdir /mnt/raid.
- Use the “mount” command to mount the disk array to a specified directory, for example “mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/raid”.
- To verify if the disk array has been successfully mounted, you can use the command df -h to check the mounted partitions.
- To ensure that the disk array can still be automatically mounted after the server is rebooted, the corresponding mount command needs to be added to the system startup script.
By following the above steps, you can successfully mount the disk array to the server and start using it to store data or perform other operations. If you encounter any issues, it is recommended to refer to the relevant documentation of the server operating system or seek assistance from professionals.
