Virtual TapeServer 6.04.02 Installation Guide

Reconfiguring Vaults | 5
If the disk partition is 2-4TB in size, complete these steps:
a. Start the partition editor, which is an interactive program similar to fdisk:
parted /dev/cciss/c0d2
b. Create a GPT disk label, which is a GUID partition table:
mklabel gpt
c. Create a 4TB primary partition at the beginning of the disk:
mkpart primary 0 4000G
Or, you can create the partition to consume all disk space:
mkpart primary 0 100%
d. Quit parted.
quit
9. Create file systems on the newly created partitions. Format the disk partition by entering
the following command:
mke2fs -j -L /VAULT01 /dev/cciss/c0d2
When specifying a vault name, use the following format: VAULTnn, where nn indicates a
number. Repeat this command, incrementing nn for each new vault.
10. Update the file-system table to reflect the new disks. Using a text editor, add the
following lines to the /etc/fstab file for each vault created above:
LABEL=/VAULT01 /VAULT01 ext3 defaults 1 2
Repeat this command for each vault.
11. Create the mount directories by using the mkdir command for each of the vaults that
were created above. Here is an example of the command to create the mount directory for
VAULT01:
mkdir /VAULT01
Repeat this command for each vault.
12. Mount the new vault and set permissions. Here are example commands:
mount /VAULT01
chown bill.root /VAULT01
chmod 755 /VAULT01
Repeat these commands for each vault.
