VirtMgr.MntStrgFail

Description

This event occurs when there is a failure to mount the storage filesystem. The arguments for this event are: - deviceName: The filesystem to be attached from. - directory: The filesystem found on device is attached at this directory. - errorMessage: The reason for the mount failure. The problem may be due to one of the following: - Mounting a read only file system. - Source is already mounted. - Filesystem type not configured. - Source is not a block device. - Target is not valid directory. - Invalid privileges.

Remedy

Check if the disk is partitioned properly. In the shell use command "lsblk" and check if the device sda/sdb has two partitions sda1, sda2 (or sdb1,sdb2). If not the disk needs to be partitioned correctly. Check if the disk is formatted properly with ext4 filesystem type. Use "clear vm storage" CLI command to reformat and remount the directories. (Note: This will destroy any data currently on the device) If the disk is partitioned and formatted properly then restarting the switch will resolve the issue. If the issue still persists contact technical support with the above details.
