Gilad, The local disk support was only added in 2.8.
Regarding how to use it, you only could specify one partition for
localdisk like following:
[localspace]
dev=/dev/sda1
fstype=ext3
After that, you need to specify the files or
directories /tmp/, /scratch/ in the litefile table. After booting,
the /tmp/ and /scratch/ will be mounted to corresponding directories in
on the specific partition.
"ALL","/tmp/","localdisk",,
"ALL","/scratch/","localdisk",,
Thanks
Best Regards

Subject: [xcat-user] localdisk option in Statelite
Hello all,
Has anyone used the local disk option with Statelite?
I'm probably missing something basic here (Is it supported on xCAT 2.7.6? )
because i'm getting the following message -
xcatmn:/var/soft/xcat/backup # chdef -t osimage -o
sles11.2-x86_64-statelite-test
partitionfile=/install/custom/netboot/sles/cfglocaldisk
Error: 'partitionfile' is not a valid attribute name for for an object type
of 'osimage'.
Error: Skipping to the next attribute.
Error: One or more errors occurred when attempting to create or modify xCAT
object definitions.
Also, in case i would like my local hdds to have three partitions, one for
swap, one for /tmp and one for /scratch, how do my litfile table should
looks like? how can i assign /tmp to /dev/sda2 and /scratch to /dev/sda3? i
did not find any explaination for that in the instructions. sorry again for
missing something basic :)
thx in advance!
