Modifying HTFS, EAFS, AFS, and S51K root filesystem mount configuration

You cannot modify the mount configuration for an HTFS, EAFS, AFS, or S51K root filesystem from the Filesystem Manager.








Modifying the root filesystem mount options requires relinking the kernel.

To modify the configuration for these filesystems:

1. Log in as root on the system where you want to change the root filesystem mount configuration.

2. Use the Hardware/Kernel Manager as described in ``Configuration tools'' in the Performance Guide.
   Select category 10, ``Filesystem configuration''.

   • To enable logging,
     
     
     set ROOTLOG to 1 (default).

   • To disable logging, set ROOTLOG to 0.

   • To enable checkpointing,
     
     
     set ROOTCHKPT to 1 (default).

   • To disable checkpointing, set ROOTCHKPT to 0.

   • To enable versioning and set the maximum number (n) of versioned files,
     
     
     set ROOTMAXVDEPTH to a non-zero number.

   • To disable versioning, set ROOTMAXVDEPTH to 0 (default).

   • To set the number of seconds (n) before a file is versioned, set ROOTMINVTIME to n (a non-zero number).
     
     The default value of ROOTMINVTIME is 0.

3. Relink the kernel with the new root filesystem parameters -- see ``Relinking the kernel'' in the SCO OpenServer Handbook.

4. Reboot the system by entering:
   
   reboot
