the following command:

number.

Repeat this command, incrementing nn for each new vault.

mke2fs -j -L /VAULT12 /dev/cciss/c0d3p2

Repeat this command for each vault:

LABEL=/VAULT12 /VAULT12 ext3 defaults 1 2

Repeat this command for each vault.

14. Mount the new vault and set permissions. Here are example commands:

mount /VAULT11

chown bill.root /VAULT11

chmod 755 /VAULT11

Repeat these commands for each vault.
