The following table shows the variables and their corresponding values.
Variables in Standard File Systems
| Variable | Description |
| <diskname> | Full path of a disk, for example, /dev/rz11c |
| <rawdiskname> | Full path of a raw disk, for example, /dev/rrz11c |
| <disktype> | Disk type, for example, rz28 |
| <mountpointname> | Full path of a mount point, for example, SAP DB: /sapdb/<SAPSID>/sapdata1 Informix: Not applicable Oracle: /oracle/<SAPSID>/sapdata1 |
To set up a standard file system:
1. Ask the customer which disks are available and make sure that they do not belong to
one of the categories listed in the following table:
Avoidable Disk Categories
| Disk Category | How to Check |
| Mounted disks | grep <diskname> /etc/fstab |
| Swapdevices | swapon -s | grep <diskname> |
| Advanced FS | cd /etc/fdmns; showfdmn * | grep <diskname> |
| Volumes within LSM (Logical Storage manager) | volprint -Ath | grep <diskname> |
2. Create disk label, if necessary:
disklabel -w -r <rawdiskname> <disktype>
3. Create empty file system:
newfs -m 0 <rawdiskname>
4. Create mount point:
mkdir <mountpointname>
5. Add line to /etc/fstab:
<diskname> <mountpointname> ufs
6. Mount file system:
mount <mountpointname>
