Automatically mounting a filesystem after a reboot
Hi All,
I am new to AIX. I am having problems mounting a filesystem after a system reboot.
Steps:
1. Create and Map LUN to host
2. On the host, to detect/configure the LUN: /usr/sbin/cfgmgr
3. Create a filesystem: mkfs -V vxfs /dev/hdisk757
4. Create a mountpoint: mkdir -p /mnt/testlun; chmod 777 /mnt/testlun
5. Mount the filesystem: mount -V vxfs -o log=INLINE /dev/hdisk757 /mnt/testlun
6. Populate the /etc/filesystems:
echo '
/mnt/testlun:
dev = /dev/hdisk757
vfs = vxfs
log = INLINE
mount = automatic <--- Tried using "true"
check = false' >> /etc/filesystems
7. touch a file
8. ls /mnt/testlun
testfile1
9. reboot
After the system reboots, I don't see the filesystem in the df output.
Are the above steps correct?. Do I need to use some kind of container like volume group or diskgroup for veritas, before I can create a filesystem on it.?.
Thanks...

LEARN ABOUT FREEBSD
msdos
MSDOSFS(5) BSD File Formats Manual MSDOSFS(5) NAME
msdosfs -- MS-DOS file system SYNOPSIS
options MSDOSFS DESCRIPTION
The msdosfs driver will permit the FreeBSD kernel to read and write MS-DOS based file systems. The most common usage follows: mount -t msdosfs /dev/ada0sN /mnt where N is the partition number and /mnt is a mount point. Some users tend to create a /dos directory for msdosfs mount points. This helps to keep better track of the file system, and make it more easily accessible. It is possible to define an entry in /etc/fstab that looks similar to: /dev/ada0sN /dos msdosfs rw 0 0 This will mount an MS-DOS based partition at the /dos mount point during system boot. Using /mnt as a permanent mount point is not advised as its intention has always been to be a temporary mount point for floppy and ZIP disks. See hier(7) for more information on FreeBSD direc- tory layout. SEE ALSO
