| - | ===== Mount Directories Manually ===== | + | ===== Mount Points ===== |
| - | Given a directory /path/to/some/data on ace-storage-2, here's how to make its content appear on your workstation. | + | A mount point is a directory on your system where the content in a remote directory appears on your workstation. The standard location for mount points on linux and unix systems us `/mnt`. |
| - | 1. Create an empty subdirectory (a mount point) anywhere on your workstation; this will be where the data will 'appear'. | + | IMPORTANT: To ensure that mount points continue to work and are still available (not clobbered) when LDAP mounts users home directories to `/home/username` we will avoid mounting file systems to users current home directories and use the standard convention of mounting file systems to the designated temporary mount point `/mnt` as described in the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard]] and illustrated in the examples below: |
| + | |||
| + | Syntax | ||
| + | |||

| + | |||
| + | /mnt/<user name>/< short host name >-< directory > | ||

| - | mkdir -p /mnt/storage-2-datasets | + | /mnt/asmith/storage-2-datasets |
| - | ==== Optional Mount Points ==== | + | ===== /etc/fuse.conf ===== |
| - | mkdir -p /mnt/storage-2-taskforce-2016 | + | Ensure that `user_allow_other` is in /etc/fuse.conf and that it is uncommented so that users are able to mount file systems. (Our current LDAP configuration requires this as well). |

| - | Replace 'myusername' by your username on ace-storage-2, and /path/to/some/data by the real location of what you're trying to access. That's it! Look into "mywork" to see your files.
