The FS Mounts Screen

NOTE This feature is not available for imported Kubernetes clusters. See Importing an External Kubernetes Cluster for additional information.

Selecting FS Mounts in the main menu opens the FS Mounts screen. The information and functions on this screen will vary depending on your role:

  • Members & Platform Administrator: The FS Mounts screen provides read-only information about filesystem mounts. See Member View.
  • Tenant/Project Administrators: The FS Mounts screen provides information about filesystem mounts and allows you to create and delete filesystem mounts. See Tenant Administrator View.

Member View

The FS Mounts screen for Members and Platform Administrators appears as shown in the following image.



This screen displays the following information and is read-only; you cannot edit any of these parameters:

  • Name: Name of the filesystem mount. Clicking the name of a filesystem mount opens the FS Mount Browser screen. This screen functions identically to the DataTap Browser screen. See The DataTap Browser Screen.
  • Host: Hostname or IP address of the file system host.
  • Path: Path to the filesystem mount.
  • Details: Type of filesystem mount and whether Read Only access is enabled (true) or disabled (false).
  • Status: Status of the filesystem mount. This can be one of the following:
    • Mounting: The filesystem mount is being brought up on one or more of the virtual host(s) in the tenant.
    • Mounted: The filesystem mount has been successfully brought up on all of the virtual nodes/containers in the tenant.
    • Altering: The filesystem mount is being updated to reflect new settings.
    • Errors: The filesystem mount has failed to come up on one or more of the virtual nodes/containers in the tenant. Platform Administrator users can view errors from individual hosts by hovering the mouse cursor over the Errors status indicator.
    • Unmounting: The filesystem mount is being unmounted from the virtual nodes/containers in the tenant.

Tenant/Project Administrator View

The FS Mounts screen for Tenant/Project Administrators appears as shown in the following image.



This screen contains the following buttons:

NOTE Filesystem mounts cannot be created for external Kubernetes clusters. See Importing an External Kubernetes Cluster.
  • Delete: Clicking this button deletes the selected filesystem mount(s) from the tenant. See Deleting an FS Mount.

The table on this screen contains the following information and functions:

  • Name: Name of the filesystem mount. Clicking the name of a filesystem mount opens the FS Mount Browser screen. This screen functions identically to the DataTap Browser screen. See The DataTap Browser Screen.
  • Host: Hostname or IP address of the file system host.
  • Path: Path to the filesystem mount.
  • Details: Type of filesystem mount and whether Read Only access is enabled (true) or disabled (false).
  • Status: Status of the filesystem mount. This can be one of the following:
    • Mounting: The filesystem mount is being brought up on one or more of the virtual host(s) in the tenant.
    • Mounted: The filesystem mount has been successfully brought up on all of the virtual nodes in the tenant.
    • Errors: The filesystem mount has failed to come up on one or more of the virtual node(s) in the tenant.
    • Unmounting: The filesystem mount is being unmounted from the virtual node(s) in the tenant.
  • Actions: The following actions are available for each filesystem mount, except the default TenantStorage mount:
    • Edit: Clicking the Edit icon (pencil) in the Actions column opens the Edit FS Mount popup. Editing a filesystem mount that is in use by a running cluster may cause file access errors within that cluster. See Editing an Existing FS Mount.
    • Delete: Clicking the Delete icon (trash can) in the Actions column deletes the filesystem mount from the tenant. See Deleting an FS Mount.
