Important
This article applies to Brainspace versions 6.3 and higher.
The local data share is the new NFS share from the Application Server to the ODA Server. The NFS is usually configured before install, just like we do for the /data. During the actual install, the installer asks where the local data share is, which should be /localdata-share on the On-Demand Server.
Configuring /data
(This should already be done for existing environments):
On the Analytics Server, which contains the /data directory that will be shared, modify the /etc/exports with similar to the following:
/data <other server>(rw,async,insecure,no_root_squash)
Then run: exportfs
On the other servers (App/ODA), you can check the mount access with the following: showmount -e <nfs server>
Then within /etc/fstab you can set the mount with the following:
<nfs server>:/data /data nfs defaults,intr,_netdev,vers=4,nolock 0 0
Then you can run 'mount -a' to mount everything within the /etc/fstab file, or 'mount /data' to mount just the data folder.
Configuring /localdata
(for all installs and/or upgrades to 6.3):
On the Application Server, which contains the /localdata directory that will be shared, modify the /etc/exports with similar to the following:
/localdata/brainspace <hostname>(rw,async,insecure,no_root_squash)
Then run: exportfs
On the ODA Server, you can check the mount access with the following: showmount -e <app server>
Then within /etc/fstab you can set the mount with the following:
<applicationserver>:/localdata/brainspace /localdata-share nfs defaults,intr,_netdev,vers=4,nolock 0 0
Then you can run 'mount -a' to mount everything within the /etc/fstab file, or 'mount /localdata-share' to mount just the /localdata-share folder.
