I use the following scripts with our Linux system [george@alpha mbin]$ cat mount-temp /bin/mount -t tmpfs -o size=1G,nr_inodes=5k tmpfs /usr/tmpfs (cd /usr ; /bin/tar xvf /usr/drive1/tempfsbackup .)
[george@alpha mbin]$ cat unmount-temp (cd /usr ; /bin/tar cvf /usr/drive1/tempfsbackup ./tmpfs) /bin/umount /usr/tmpfs First I created the /usr/tmpfs manually (by executing the first line of mount-temp) Second, I cd'd into the directory, then UV to create a UV account Third, I went into the UV login account, and linked it as a valid account (So I could reference Q pointers) I run the unmount script to tar up the account first and save the tar file, then release the tempfs I run the mount script to create the tempfs, then untar the account I forget what the max size of the /tmpfs can be (I just set mine up with 1G) George > -----Original Message----- > From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users- > boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of DavidJMurray (mvdbs.com) > Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2011 11:35 AM > To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org > Subject: Re: [U2] Why Pick U2? > > > > I mean using the existing RAM within the system to create and mount a > small > file system which a temporary U2 file can be created and used; rather > than a > complete SSD device. > > > > John Thompson-15 wrote: > > > > Its expensive... and it seems fairly safe as IBM, HP, and Dell are > all > > selling it now... > > > > > > > > > > > ----- > > Learn and Do > Excel and Share > > > http://mvdbs.com http://mvdbs.com > -- > View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Why-Pick-U2-- > tp32061959p32335366.html > Sent from the U2 - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > _______________________________________________ > U2-Users mailing list > U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org > http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
