Mounting GPFS remote mount on compute nodes

You must explicitly mount a GPFS file system on a compute node by using the cloudkit grant filesystem command.

Before you run the cloudkit grant filesystem command, make sure that both storage and compute nodes were created in the IBM Storage Scale cloud cluster environment.

To mount a GPFS file system on compute nodes, enter the following command:

#./cloudkit grant filesystem

Example:

# ./cloudkit grant filesystem
