Can a disk have multiple mount points?
Each volume or partition can have multiple mount points associated with it. Rather than mount the drives as D, E, F, and G, you decide it’d be easier for users to work with the drives if they were all mounted as folders of the system drive, C:\Data.
How do I create a multiple mount point in Linux?
format the new LVM (probably to ext4 or xfs) mount it to a temporary spot (ex: /dev/tmp ) copy the contents of /home to the new lvm ( /dev/tmp ) with rsync or cp. do a “swaperoo” (unmount the old drive at /home , unmount the new drive at /dev/tmp and mount the new drive at /home.
Can we mount a file system at more than one location at the same time?
NFS permits filesystems to be mounted at “more than one location” as each location is a separate system. The Linux “bind” mount permits the same filesystem to be mounted in multiple locations on the same system.
Which one of the following Linux file system does not have by default journaling feature?
This was developed to overcome the limitation of the original ext file system. Ext2 does not have journaling feature.
Adding a mount point to shared disk is the same as adding a mount point to a non-shared disk. Mount points are added by Win32 API SetVolumeMountPoint, and are deleted by DeleteVolumeMountPoint. This has nothing to do with the disk resource dynamic link library (DLL).
How can we mount multiple disks as one directory?
What you want to do is remove the filesystems on these disks (backup any data that is already on them), then create a LVM volume set across all four disks. Then you can create a filesystem in that volume set, and mount that filesystem to a single place and fill it that way.
Can You Mount / Dev / sda4 to two mount points?
Having mounted /dev/sda4 on /mnt (see above), try which should leave you with two empty .mark directories that can now be removed. Do not do this while the applications are running!
What happens if I unmount one disk on my computer?
You can unmount like this: If one disk fails you only lose the files that was stored on that particular disk. If your data is important for you and you would like your data to survive a disk failure you should consider a RAID setup instead (search for mdadm).
