Mounting A HDD
Jul 14, 2007I read a few threads and it seems as simple as fdisking the drive and then mounting it, but im a little scared..
so if someone has a proper step by step guide to do this can they please help me..
at the moment i have a 40GB ( ide, i think ) hdd and a secondary 250GB IDE hdd, i also have servercp installed and i think im on fedora 6..
Now i dont want to just type fdisk dev/hdb incase that is my first 40gb hdd, i dont mind losing the extra data on it i just dont want to format the OS and stuff was im on an un-managed server and will cost me time / money for them to re-install it all..
is there a ssh command to list all the hdd's connected to the server and to tell me what size they are, and where they are on the server before i start formatting, fdisking and mounting them?

Hard Drive Mounting
Dec 3, 2007I am going to mount my new hard drive to /home/user/public_html but I have a question before I do so. If I upload stuff to /home/user/public_html will it go to my new hard drive that I just mounted there or will it still go in the old hard drive?
The reason why I want to mount it there is because my other hard drive ran out of space, and I would like to continue this user account's space without having to move this user.
VRTservers.net :: Mounting Hdd (they Turned Off My Server)
Feb 6, 2008Problem with VRTservers.net . they turned off my server and tell me :
To turn on the server, we require:
1. the payment of reconnection fee $ 30
2. the server need to be reformatted.
If you do not want to lose your data, you may purchase secondary HDD so you can
transfer your data to the secondary hard drive.
FYI : mounting the old hdd is not our responsibility
If I do step 2 .Is it Possible ? (I need All data)
I think if I mounting a new Hdd , I lose All data -
Mounting Hard Drive (HDD) In CentOS 5
Feb 15, 2008so my provider setup my HDD's wrong (i believe).
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2 9.7G 5.7G 3.6G 62% /
/dev/sda5 215G 608M 204G 1% /var
/dev/sda1 99M 16M 78M 17% /boot
tmpfs 1013M 0 1013M 0% /dev/shm
/usr/tmpDSK 485M 14M 447M 3% /tmp
the problem is that I have /dev/sda5 mounted to var. I want cPanel to use this HDD as the main storage for the /home directory. How do I make cPanel use this hdd for storage?

View 5 Replies View RelatedIssue Mounting RAID Perc Partition
May 19, 2007We had a problem on one of our servers and it was running RAID 1 with two 300GB SAS.
When I boot the server I have the following issue,
PXE:E61: Media test failure, check cable
I searched through all the net but couldnt find a solution that helped me.
Now I took one of the HDDs out and installed as slave on another Linux server. One of the HDDs says when I do /sbin/fdisk -l,
no partition table for /dev/sdb (something like that)
The other HDD have all the partition table,
/dev/sdb1
/dev/sdb2
/dev/sdb3
/dev/sdb4
/dev/sdb5
The big partition (probably when I have my data) is under /dev/sdb2, although when I try to mount that partition I get the following error,
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb2
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
Is any command specific for mounting RAID partitions or the HD is gone ?
I really need the data that are inside it.
Mounting Drive Between Win-Linux (ntfs & Ext3)
Jul 25, 2007I wanted to mount a Usb portable drive of some data I have inside my Linux server and make them read on my Windows xp.
The drive has been formatted as ext3 and it just won't show in "my computer" inside Windows unless I reformat it again as ntfs.
The same turns around if if I format as ntfs, and i can't mount it under linux with the message "mount: unknown file system type 'ntfs'"
24" Depth Rails/mounting Kit For Supermicro 2U CSE-825TQ/SC-825
May 30, 2008Basically, I bought this case:
[url]
and didn't forsee any problems as we have lots of servers with this case at work (which is where I am co-locating the server) but I didn't realize that the racks we have those servers in are setup for a longer depth (like 26-30 inches) instead of 24 inches like the rest of the racks. Well the problem is that all employee stuff is limited to two different racks and both are 24" depth racks so the rails which came with the chassis (26 inch) will not work. Does anyone know of anywhere I could get a 24" rack mount kit which will work with the supermicro SC-825 2U case?
Mounting Brackets/rails For A DAT Drive In A DELL Server
Sep 13, 2007I look after a Dell PE2800 server, it has a pair of 5.25 bays on the front, the top most of the two contains a Dell PowerVault 100T DAT72 tape backup drive. I have a second identical drive that i now wish to install into the bay beneath in a similar manner.
Problem is this - my colleague tell me that Dell are no longer selling the mounting brackets / rails needed to install the drive. I have had a fruitless look through the internet for a number of weeks now and hope that someone in the forum may be able to suggest a solution to the problem... anybody know a source for the brackets? Is there a parts site somewhere ive missed? Anyone happen to have what im after? Or any alternative suggestions?
