NFS

Many TRIUMF disks are available via NFS. The following mount points are conventionally defined:

/triumfcs - Unix disks (originally decu13)
/triumfcl - VMS cluster disks (ERICH)
/triumfcs/linux - Linux (LIN00)

Note that to avoid file ownership problems, TRIUMF standard UIDs should be used (the same numbers on your private Linux system as your account on the public systems). See TRIUMF Computing Services for number assignment, or create accounts on your system using existing public UID numbers.
Mapping may be done (once) for VMS to Unix on VMS machines.

The following template may be used as a start for /etc/fstab:

lin00:/home/export /triumfcs/linux nfs ro,nosuid,soft,retry=100 0 0
erich:/scr0 /triumfcl/scr0 nfs rw,soft,nosuid,retry=100 0 0
erich:/usr0 /triumfcl/usr0 nfs rw,soft,nosuid,retry=100 0 0
erich:/lib1 /triumfcl/lib1 nfs ro,soft,nosuid,retry=100 0 0
decu13:/usr /triumfcs/usr nfs ro,nosuid,soft,retry=100 0 0

Mount points must be created with mkdir before use.
Note that the automounter is now recommended. See the RedHat Installation Guide
