Formating ext4 filesystem


-------------------------

# mkfs.ext4 -L DATA /dev/sdb6


# tune2fs -L MYDATA -c 0 -i 0 /dev/sdb6
# dumpe2fs /dev/sdb6 | less

Formating xfs filesystem


------------------------
# mkfs.xfs -b size=1k -l size=10m /dev/sdb7 -f
# xfs_db -x /dev/sdb7
xfs_db> label DATA2
writing all SBs
new label = "DATA2"
xfs_db> label
label = "DATA2"
xfs_db> quit

Mount filesystem
-----------------

# mkdir -p /data/{mydata,data2}

# mount /dev/sdb6 /data/mydata/


# mount | grep mydata
/dev/sdb6 on /data/mydata type ext4 (rw,relatime,seclabel,data=ordered)

Remount with options


# mount -o remount,noexec /dev/sdb6 /data/mydata/
# mount | grep mydata
/dev/sdb6 on /data/mydata type ext4 (rw,noexec,relatime,seclabel,data=ordered)

Presistance Mount using UUID


----------------------------
Find the UUID
# blkid /dev/sdb6
/dev/sdb6: LABEL="MYDATA" UUID="af520c04-0b28-4b67-ac7a-cf986221a336" TYPE="ext4"

Edit /etc/fstab
UUID="af520c04-0b28-4b67-ac7a-cf986221a336" /data/mydata ext4 noexec 0 2

To verify everything is working


# mount -a

Mount Options
-------------
man page are very useful

Modify fstab file


UUID="af520c04-0b28-4b67-ac7a-cf986221a336" /data/mydata ext4 noatime,noexec
0 2
UUID="a7f0f069-1600-4437-ae75-75bb846f012d" /data/data2 xfs
noexec,noatime,uquota,gquota,gqnoenforce 0 0
Apply
# umount /data/data2/
# umount /data/mydata/
# mount -a
# mount | grep data
/dev/sdb6 on /data/mydata type ext4 (rw,noexec,noatime,seclabel,data=ordered)
/dev/sdb7 on /data/data2 type xfs
(rw,noexec,noatime,seclabel,attr2,inode64,usrquota,gqnoenforce)
