6 Save and close the configuration file.
7 Use cvadmin to start the file system by typing the following:
/usr/cvfs/bin/cvadmin
snadmin> start <file_system_name>
snadmin> activate <file_system_name>
snadmin> select <file_system_name>
snadmin> show
8 Mount the file system by typing the following:
mount -t cvfs <file_system_name> <mount_point>
For example: mount -t cvfs snfs1 /stornext/snfs1
9 Create an affinity/directory association by typing the following:
/usr/cvfs/bin/cvmkdir -k <affinity_name> <directory_name>
For example: /usr/cvfs/bin/cvmkdir -k data1_aff /stornext/snfs1/
video_data
This associates all data written to /stornext/snfs1/video_data with
stripe group Data1 and, therefore, disks CvfsDisk2 and CvfsDisk3.
