=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The B<vos create> command creates a read/write volume with the name
|
|
specified by the B<-name> argument at the site specified by the B<-server>
|
|
and B<-partition> arguments. In addition, the command allocates or sets
|
|
the following:
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
Volume ID numbers for the read/write volume and its associated read-only
|
|
and backup volumes (this command does not actually create the latter two
|
|
types of volume). A volume ID number is an identification number
|
|
guaranteed to be unique within a cell.
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
An access control list (ACL) associated with the volume's root directory,
|
|
which takes the same name as volume's mount point when the volume is
|
|
mounted with the B<fs mkmount> command. An entry that grants all seven
|
|
permissions to the members of the system:administrators group is
|
|
automatically placed on the ACL. (In addition, the File Server by default
|
|
always implicitly grants the C<l> (lookup) and C<a> (administer)
|
|
permissions on every ACL to members of the system:administrators group,
|
|
even when the group does not appear on an ACL; use the B<-implicit>
|
|
argument to the B<fileserver> initialization command to alter the set of
|
|
rights on a server-by-server basis if desired.)
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
The volume's space quota, set to 5000 kilobyte blocks by default. Use the
|
|
B<-maxquota> argument to specify a different quota, or use the B<fs
|
|
setquota> command to change the volume's quota after mounting the volume
|
|
with the B<fs mkmount> command.
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
The volume is empty when created. To access it via the Cache Manager,
|
|
mount it in the file space by using the B<fs mkmount> command.
|
|
|
|
=head1 CAUTIONS
|
|
|
|
Currently, the maximum size of a volume is 2 terabytes (2^31 bytes).
|
|
|
|
=head1 OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item B<-server> <I<server name>>
|
|
|
|
Identifies the file server machine on which to create the read/write
|
|
volume. Provide the machine's IP address or its host name (either fully
|
|
qualified or using an unambiguous abbreviation). For details, see
|
|
L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-partition> <I<partition name>>
|
|
|
|
Identifies the partition on which to create the read/write volume, on the
|
|
file server machine specified by the B<-server> argument. Provide the
|
|
partition's complete name with preceding slash (for example, C</vicepa>)
|
|
or use one of the three acceptable abbreviated forms. For details, see
|
|
L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-name> <I<volume name>>
|
|
|
|
Specifies a name for the read/write volume. The maximum length is 22
|
|
characters, which can include any alphanumeric or punctuation
|
|
character. By convention, periods separate the fields in a name. Do not
|
|
apply the C<.backup> or C<.readonly> extension to a read/write volume
|
|
name; they are reserved for the Volume Server to add to the read/write
|
|
name when creating those backup and read-only volumes respectively.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-maxquota> <I<volume quota>>
|
|
|
|
Specifies the maximum amount of disk space the volume can use, as a number
|
|
of kilobyte blocks (a value of C<1024> is one megabyte). The value C<0>
|
|
(zero) grants an unlimited quota, but the size of the disk partition that
|
|
houses the volume places an absolute limit on its size. If this argument
|
|
is omitted, the default value is C<5000>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-cell> <I<cell name>>
|
|
|
|
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument
|
|
with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-noauth>
|
|
|
|
Assigns the unprivileged identity C<anonymous> to the issuer. Do not
|
|
combine this flag with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see
|
|
L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-localauth>
|
|
|
|
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
|
|
F</usr/afs/etc/KeyFile> file. The B<vos> command interpreter presents it
|
|
to the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during mutual
|
|
authentication. Do not combine this flag with the B<-cell> argument or
|
|
B<-noauth> flag. For more details, see L<vos(1)>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-verbose>
|
|
|
|
Produces on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the command's
|
|
execution. If this argument is omitted, only warnings and error messages
|
|
appear.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-help>
|
|
|
|
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are
|
|
ignored.
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
=head1 OUTPUT
|
|
|
|
The Volume Server produces the following message to confirm that it
|
|
created the volume:
|
|
|
|
Volume <volume_ID> created on partition <partition_name> of <machine_name>
|
|
|
|
=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
The following command creates the read/write volume C<user.pat> on the
|
|
F</vicepf> partition of the file server machine C<fs4.abc.com>.
|
|
|
|
% vos create -server fs4.abc.com -partition /vicepf -name user.pat
|
|
Volume user.pat created on partition /vicepf of fs4.abc.com
|
|
|
|
=head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
|
|
|
|
The issuer must be listed in the F</usr/afs/etc/UserList> file on the
|
|
machine specified with the B<-server> argument and on each database server
|
|
machine. If the B<-localauth> flag is included, the issuer must instead be
|
|
logged on to a server machine as the local superuser C<root>.
