Administering filesystems

Modifying filesystem mount configuration

In the Filesystem Manager, select a filesystem from the list, select Mount -> Modify Mount Configuration and change the filesystem parameters:


Mount Point
specifies the directory where you want to attach (``mount'') the filesystem. For example, the u filesystem is generally mounted on the /u directory.

Description
specifies the (optional) description of the filesystem. For example, the default description for the root filesystem is ``The root filesystem''.

Filesystem Type
specifies the type of filesystem. See ``Supported filesystem types''.

The filesystem type is set when the filesystem is created and cannot be changed.


Access mode


NOTE: When mounting remote filesystems, read/write permissions might already be limited by the NFS server. For more information, see ``Understanding share access permissions''.


When to Mount

Advanced Options
changes the filesystem-specific advanced options. Which advanced options are available depends on the type of filesystem you are modifying (the S5 and dosfs types do not have advanced options):
