Omkar - Yes, with HDFS *(nothing HDP specific)* you mount each drive
separately.
Where you mount them doesn’t matter, but never set a mount point under
/dev.
This talks to the various configuration settings to update to match
those dirs, but you would do them from Ambari instead of editing the
configuration files manually:

Hi,
I have 600GB X 8 disks on each machine that can be used for HDP.
1 disk is used for the /root, /home etc. so I'm now left with 7 disks.
If I understand correctly from the HDP
recos<http://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.1.7/bk_cluster-planning-guide/content/file_system.html>.
, I can MOUNT these 7 disks as:
/dev/grid/0
/dev/grid/1
.
.
/dev/grid/6
Where each disk will have a ONE SINGLE BIG partition with ext3/ext4.
