Virtual TapeServer 8.4 Configuration Guide
Enabling and Configuring Data Replication | 57
a. Unmount the file system:
umount /VAULT04
b. Copy the /etc/fstab file to a backup file:
cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.backup
c. Relabel the device, using the file system name:
e2label /dev/sdc2 /DATA04
d. Edit /etc/fstab and replace the old “VAULTnn” name with the new “DATAnn” name.
e. Rename the mount point:
mv /VAULT04 /DATA04
f. Mount the file system and set permissions:
mount /DATA04
chown bill.replicators /DATA04
chmod 750 /DATA04
3. Repeat these steps for each partition you wish to rename.
To add data partitions on existing external storage devices
Complete the steps from "Adding vaults on external storage devices" on page 15 with the following
caveats:
l Use data partitions instead of vaults.
l Use /DATAxx instead of /VAULTxx, and use the chown and chmod commands to change the
ownership and file system mode of the partitions.
l Data partitions cannot be shared across GFS file systems.
Configuring source and target settings
The “source” server is the VTS server where the original virtual tapes reside. This server replicates
tapes out to remote (“target”) servers, which store the replicated tapes in a designated directory.
You can also configure a server to be an “intermediate” server, which will host replicated tapes and
then replicate them to other remote servers.
Use the web interface to configure source and target settings, and refer to the online help, which
provides in-depth information about each required step in the process.
