The following describes the procedure for changing file system attributes using the GFS Management View.
Changing the file system attributes includes changing the mount information.
(1) Unmounting a file system
Before changing the file system attribute, unmount the file system on all the nodes.
See
For information on how to unmount the file system using a command, see "11.3.1 Unmount".
(2) Selecting a file system
From the [Mount tree] or [File system information] field in the main screen, select the file system you want to change. Only file systems of the sfcfs type can be selected.
Click [Change Attributes] on the [Operation] menu, and the [File System Attributes] screen appears.
From the [File System Attributes] screen, the [Mount information], [Share information], and [Detailed information] can be selected using the screen switching tabs.

Owner: root
Group: sys
Access permissions: 775

[RO mount]: ro
[noatime]: noatime
[auto mount disabled]: noauto
For details about the parameters, see mount_sfcfs(1M).
Note

[Communication timeout]: CON_TIMEOUT
[Communication protocol]: SFCFS_IPV6
[Nagle algorithm]: GFS_TCP_NAGLE
For details about the tuning parameter, see "14.1.2 Communication timeout value", "14.1.3 Communication protocol", or "14.1.4 Enabling and disabling the Nagle algorithm in the communications between MDS and AC" in this manual.
(5) Mounting a file system
After the completion of the file system attribute change operation, a file system is in mounted.
