How to access to mounted HDD?

[mladja04]

Hello,

I have server in which I have 2 HDD. One is primary and in it is Linux CentOS. Last week my server stop to work and I reboot it. But after that reboot second mounted HDD in which I backup my files aren't visible at old path. Old path is - I login via SSH and there is folder named SECOND, but now that isn't case.

I want to know, how I to see in which folder to enter, which one is for second HDD?


I see both, but how to enter in it?
And to see what is in it (my old data)?

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 14 48641 390604410 8e Linux LVM

Thank you very much.

I *guess* your backup drive is sdb.
If so, you should add a entry to /etc/fstab, that starts like this:
/dev/sdb1 /SECOND

filesysytem, filesystem options, dump parameter, pass parameter need to be added,
but depend on your decisions.

Manually to add it?

What to do after add, do I need to execute some command?

[Irithori]

After /etct/fstab is setup correctly, "mount /SECOND" will do.

Can you please show your /etc/fstab?
And what filesystem do you use on for your backup partition?

Also, this directory SECOND is in / right?

[mladja04]

This is file /etc/fstab

/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 1 2
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs 0 0
proc /proc proc 0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap 0 0



No, this /SECOND isn't in this file

[Irithori]

ok, try this:

mkdir -p /SECOND

Then add this line to /etc/fstab

/dev/sdb1  /SECOND ext3 noatime 0 0

mount /SECOND
ls -la /SECOND

Thank you very much. I solve problem with this command:

mount /dev/sdb1 /second

If you won't add an entry of Second Hard disk in /etc/fstab file, you will have to execute mount command on every reboot.
I would suggest you to edit /etc/fstab file as suggested by Irithori.
