HI Gurus,

I would like to know how can i know the dates when the filesystem was added to the server.

Thanks

this information is not accumulated in /etc/fstab file
only the last modification and access time should be retrievable.

I believe somebody might have an answer for that.

What filesystem? Some filesystems (reiser3 only?) reserve a space in the superblock for fs creation time, while others you may only be able to determine the oldest [cm]time on-disk (meaning only the oldest changed/modified time will be accessible.)

If you can unmount it, then the date of the mount point might help.
The lost+found directory may have the correct timestamp.
I don't think the "mount" command will show it.
