Operating Systems AIX Automatically mounting a filesystem after a reboot Post 302170684 by bakunin on Tuesday 26th of February 2008 11:42:29 AM

Hmmm...

I have never heard about a "vxfs" filesystem. In AIX JFS (journaling file system) and its successor JFS2 are common.

The "containers" as you have called them are integrated parts of AIX. Without having created a volume group or having added your disk to an existing one you will not even be able to use it, so perhaps your filesystem (if you created any) is now on some other disk.

For short: your problem can easily be corrected by editing the file /etc/filesystems and add the line

Code:
mount           = true

To the filesystems stanza. Assuming your filesystem is mounted on /path/to/fs this would look similar to that (the line to insert/change is marked bold):

Code:
/path/to/fs:
        dev             = /dev/my_new_lv
        vfs             = jfs2
        log             = /dev/hd8
        mount           = true
        check           = true
        vol             = /path/to/fs
        free            = false
        quota           = no

Right now I'm a bit short on time, but as i see much confusion over this issue now and again i will write a detailed explanation of the LVMs workings over the next few days. Until then you might read some information about the LVM (Logical Volume Manageer) on the IBM Website (the link to the redbook site is pinned in the links section this forum) and read the following (part-)explanations i have written in answering one or the other question.

quotaon

QUOTAON(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						QUOTAON(8)

NAME

     quotaon, quotaoff -- turn filesystem quotas on and off

SYNOPSIS

     quotaon [-g] [-u] [-v] filesystem ...
     quotaon [-g] [-u] [-v] -a
     quotaoff [-g] [-u] [-v] filesystem ...
     quotaoff [-g] [-u] [-v] -a

DESCRIPTION

     Quotaon announces to the system that disk quotas should be enabled on one or more filesystems.  Quotaoff announces to the system that the
     specified filesystems should have disk quotas turned off.	The filesystem must be mounted and it must have the appropriate mount option file
     located at its root, the .quota.ops.user file for user quota configuration, and the .quota.ops.group file for group quota configuration.
     Quotaon also expects each filesystem to have the appropriate quota data files located at its root, the .quota.user file for user data, and
     the .quota.group file for group data.  These filenames and their root location cannot be overridden.  By default, quotaon will attempt to
     enable both user and group quotas.  By default, quotaoff will disable both user and group quotas.

     Available options:

     -a      If the -a flag is supplied in place of any filesystem names, quotaon/quotaoff will enable/disable any filesystems with an existing
	     mount option file at its root.  The mount option file specifies the types of quotas that are to be configured.

     -g      Only group quotas will be enabled/disabled.  The mount option file, .quota.ops.group, must exist at the root of the filesystem.

     -u      Only user quotas will be enabled/disabled.  The mount option file, .quota.ops.user, must exist at the root of the filesystem.

     -v      Causes quotaon and quotaoff to print a message for each filesystem where quotas are turned on or off.

     Specifying both -g and -u is equivalent to the default.

     Quotas for both users and groups will automatically be turned on at filesystem mount if the appropriate mount option file and binary data
     file is in place at its root.

FILES

     Each of the following quota files is located at the root of the mounted filesystem.  The mount option files are empty files whose existence
     indicates that quotas are to be enabled for that filesystem.

     .quota.user       data file containing user quotas
     .quota.group      data file containing group quotas
     .quota.ops.user   mount option file used to enable user quotas
     .quota.ops.group  mount option file used to enable group quotas

SEE ALSO

     quota(1), quotactl(2), edquota(8), quotacheck(8), repquota(8)

HISTORY

     The quotaon command appeared in 4.2BSD.
