How to Mount a File System

In the Trusted Solaris environment, unlabeled and labeled hosts can be mounted on a Trusted Solaris labeled host.

Do not use proprietary names for mounted file systems. The names of mounted file systems are visible to every user.

To Mount a File System

1. In the admin role, (or root if the admin role does not exist), at label ADMIN_LOW, under Trusted Solaris Management Console, click this_host: Scope=Files, Policy=TSOL.

   Note -

   If toolbox icons display as red stop signs, the toolboxes will not load. To load them, do Step 4.

2. Click Storage, then double-click Mounts and Shares, then double-click Mounts.

3. Choose Add NFS Mount from the Action menu.

4. Follow and answer the prompts to mount the file system.

   You are prompted to allow creation of the mount point if it does not exist. The tool adds an entry in the /etc/vfstab file, creates the mount point, and mounts the file system

5. Return to the procedure and chapter you are working from.
