Interactions Among File Settings, Options, and Directives Introduction

The mcf file defines each file system, but file system behavior depends on interactions among default system settings in the /etc/vfstab file, settings in the samfs.cmd file, and options in the mount command.

You can specify some mount options, such as the stripe width, in more than one place. Note that settings in one place can override the settings in another.

For information about the various ways to specify mount options, see Chapter 8, Setting Up Mount Parameters and Initializing the File System Environment, in Sun QFS and Sun Storage Archive Manager 5.3 Installation Guide.
