Hi, Needed guidance. I am trying to move my EC2 machine deployment code to start creating XFS volumes as opposed to ext4 volumes like it used to. An issue I have run into is that the XFS volume doesn't get mounted automatically on reboot with the /etc/fstab entry which used to work fine for ext4. A manual mount later works perfectly. Version: $ uname -a Linux ip-172-31-39-239 4.4.44-39.55.amzn1.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Jan 30 18:15:53 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux sudo cat /etc/fstab # LABEL=/ / ext4 defaults,noatime 1 1 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/sdb /redis_data auto noatime,noexec,nodiratime 0 0 $ df -T /redis_data/ Filesystem Type 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/xvdb xfs 5232640 32940 5199700 1% /redis_data However if I change the /etc/fstab directive to: /dev/sdb /redis_data xfs noatime,noexec,nodiratime 0 0 the auto mount starts working fine. Now this isn't a major problem since the functionality ultimately works. But I would certainly like to have the flexibility to avoid hard coding the fs type in the code that generates these fstab entries. Any pointers or help is much appreciated. :) Thanks, Vaibhaw -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-xfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
