Configuring VERITAS File System

After installing VERITAS File System, you can create a file system on a disk slice or VERITAS Volume Manager volume with the mkfs command. Before you can use this file system, you must mount it with the mount command. You can unmount the file system later with the umount command. A file system can be automatically mounted at system boot time if you add an entry for it in the /etc/fstab file.

The VERITAS-specific commands are described in the VERITAS File System guides and online manual pages. See the Quick Start Guide Reference chapter of the VERITAS File System Administrator's Guide for examples of the most common VxFS operating procedures.
