for this information.
g. Enter the username for accessing the Fibre Channel switch. Consult your SAN 
administrator for this information.

Because the LUN-to-device mapping can be different on each system, clvm logical volume 
names are globally unique. You cannot create duplicates. 
Repeat these steps for each GFS file system.
15. If GFS was previously installed, you may need to rediscover the previous GFS volume by 
running these commands:
pvscan
lvscan
vgscan
16. Complete the following steps on each cluster node to verify that all cluster nodes can 
access the GFS volumes, mount them, and access files written by other nodes. In the 
following steps, VAULT10 is used as the name of the vault. 
a. Configure the /etc/fstab file to automatically mount the file system when VTS 
restarts. Add a line to the file that is similar to the following:
/dev/gfsvg1/lv1 /VAULT10 gfs defaults 0 0
