11.6 Solving Problems With Unknown File Systems

Advanced Server recognizes a subset of the UNIX system file systems. By default, the
server knows only the following types of file systems:

hs or cdfs

nfs

s5

sfs

ufs

vxfs

memfs

If you are using a file system other than those recognized by Advanced Server, it will be
treated as an s5 file system.

If you want

all

of your unknown file systems to be treated as a type other than s5, set the

fsnosupport parameter in the [ fsi ] section of the

lanman.ini

file to the name of a recognized

file system. Then, stop and restart the server.

If you want to set each unknown file system

individually

to a specific known file system,

follow these steps:

1. At the UNIX system prompt, type this command and press

ENTER

:

df -n pathname

Replace

pathname

with the name of the path to the unknown file system.

The system displays the mount point and file system type as specified by the UNIX
operating system.

2. Set the fsmap parameter in the [ fsi ] section of the

lanman.ini

file as follows:

unknown:s5,nfs:nfs,vxfs:ufs,sfs:ufs,unixfilesystem:filesystem, ...

Replace

unixfilesystem

with the name of the file system type returned in Step 1.

Replace

filesystem

with the name of the Advanced Server file system type you want to

use.

3. Stop and restart the server.

Advanced Server now will map the UNIX file system to the recognized file system you
specified.

For information on how to edit the

lanman.ini

file, see chapter

“Lanman.ini File”
