In Rel 5.5 Linux I can give a user the ability to mount a file system as long as I have the correct entries in the fstab file.
cat /etc/fstab file
/dev/emcpowera1 /gfs1 ext3 rw,user,noauto 0 0 This one works but the next one does not.
/dev/vx/dsk/cbtest/cbtestvol /cbtest vxfs rw,user,noauto 0 0
When I do the same for a vx file system I get permission denied, no output and no mount. What do I have to do to allow a user to mount a vx file system?
This is one version of an error
/opt/VRTS/bin/mount -t vxfs -o suid /dev/vx/dsk/cbtest/cbtestvol /cbtest
UX:vxfs mount: ERROR: V-3-22168: Cannot open portal device: Permission denied
UX:vxfs mount: ERROR: V-3-25255: mount: You don't have a license to run this program
Another version of an error
mount -t vxfs -o suid /dev/vx/dsk/cbtest/cbtestvol /cbtest
no output and no error.
And the last
mount -t vxfs /cbtest
mount: only root can do that
If I run 'mount /gfs1' it works.
I have also changed the group membership to be disk and 660 permissions on the device file.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
