Hello,
I have AIX 6.1 server running several system WPARS. So far I was not able to configure the system that way that filesystmes are mounted automatically after WPAR (or system) reboot. Filesystems (jfs2) are created in the global environemnt and mounted in WPARs (smit mntwpar). In the documentation I have found that putting stanza type=<WPAR name> in /etc/filesystem for correspnding filesystem will trigger automated mount - but this does not seem to be working. Any help would be appreciated..

Thank you

In /etc/filesystems set "type = <wparname>" and that will make the filesystems mount when the WPAR is started.
If you want the WPAR to start at boot time, you should probably make an rc script or add an entry to inittab that will do the "startwpar <wparname>" operation.

Thank you,
yes, this is what I think I did and this does not work as expected.. unless I am missing something..

So as an example:

scc45:/> lswpar
Name State Type Hostname Directory

---

scc45-WP01 A S scc45-wp1 /wpars/scc45-WP01
............
scc45-WP020 A S scc45-wp20 /wpars/scc45-WP20
/etc/filesystems:

/WP01:
dev = /dev/fslv45
vfs = jfs2
log = /dev/loglv06
mount = true
type = scc45-WP01
options = rw
account = false
This does not work.. is this a proper setup?
