Hello List,

I have been given the task of managing a few Solrais 10 sparc boxes. I have created some soft partitions and want to move these FS onto them:

Soft-Partitions:

 d30 - usr
 d31 - home
 d32 - opt
 d33 - tmp
 d34 - var

I can mount /usr and /var without a problem. But I cannot seem to mount home, I cannot even write to it, so I am thinking I should create /export/home and mount it instead, correct? If correct, what is the purpose of /home?

When I try to add /opt it never mounts on a reboot but if I issue 'mount /opt' it mounts fine on the soft-partition, here is an abbreviated view of my /etc/vfstab. Do I need to say 'yes' to 'mount at boot' for this FS?

#device         device          mount           FS      fsck    mount   mount
#to mount to fsck point type pass at boot options
#
/dev/md/dsk/d32 /dev/md/rdsk/d32        /opt    ufs     1       no      -

When I try to do the same for /tmp and mount it on a soft-partition, upon reboot I get these NOTICES. When I looked closer at /tmp it appears to be swap and since I already have my swap space mirrored I probably shouldn't try to mount that on a soft-partition, correct?


NOTICE: /: unexpected free inode 67, run fsck(1M) -o f
NOTICE: /: unexpected free inode 51, run fsck(1M) -o f
NOTICE: /: unexpected free inode 51, run fsck(1M) -o f
NOTICE: /: unexpected free inode 67, run fsck(1M) -o f
NOTICE: /: unexpected free inode 67, run fsck(1M) -o f
etc,etc,etc.

The way I am doing this is like so:

Create the soft-partition
Use 'newfs /dev/md/dsk/d30' to put a FS on the partition
'mount /dev/md/rdsk/d30 /mnt/'
Use 'cp [EMAIL PROTECTED] /opt/* /mnt/'
Edit my '/etc/vfstab'
reboot
'mount /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s0 /mnt/'
'rm -fr /mnt/opt/*'

Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks for any help,

Jon
