How to Change the mount Base for an existing ASE VDB
If after provisioning an ASE VDB the Mount Base needs to be changed from the default location : /<toolkit>/<Delphix_Appliance_ID>-<vdb-##> to a unique location then the following can be carried out:
- Login to the CLI as an admin user
- Disable the VDB
- Update the mount base
- Enable the VDB
Example:
Login to the CLI as an admin user and carry out the following:
DE > source
DE source> select <vDB>
DE source '<vDB>’>disable
DE source '<vDB>’ disable *> commit
DE source '<vDB>'> update
DE source '<vDB>' update *> set mountBase=/mnt/provision/<vDB_unique_mount_point> *** This must be unique per vDB ***
DE source '<vDB>' update *> commit
Dispatched job JOB-1442
SOURCE_UPDATE job started for “<vDB>".
SOURCE_UPDATE job for "<vDB>" completed successfully.
DE source '<vDB>'> enable
DE source '<vDB>' enable *> commit
The mountBase must be unique for each VDB or staging database. The path can reside under a common parent directory (/mnt/provision for example) but you must specify a unique child directory under the parent for each VDB or staging database using this parameter.
Please ensure you check that their is nothing else mounted already on a mount base you choose.
