MOUNT <ipaddress:sharename> This DGy 201 optional feature supports the
ability to mount an external network mapped
disk drive. Note that this capability requires the
use of Linux or an Allegro network file server
software for the Windows OS.
The MOUNT command provides the ability to
set up a network mapped NFS remote disk
drive that DGy can use to store and recall
recordings. The location of the remote drive is
identified by the network address (ipaddress)
and sharename is the name of the shared
drive as configured in the NFS server on the
remote host (note that the syntax of this name
may differ with different NFS servers). The
local mount point is always on the DGy 201 /
mnt/mp1
It is recommended that you consult with your
IT manager before executing the mounting
procedure.
Example:
To mount the /usr/dgy NFS share on a Linux
host at IP node 192.168.1.123, issue the
following:
mount 192.168.1.123:/usr/dgy
Once the disk is mounted the drive will be
identified in the Clip Browser as
\remot.
To record, play or list clips on the remote drive
execute the command CD/rgb/mp1 followed by
the desired clip command (PLAY, RECORD
...).
The settings associated with the remote drive
are saved in non-volatile memory, and the DGy
will automatically attempt to reconnect after a
reboot. To select a new remote drive you must
first unmount the current drive (see the
UMOUNT command for details).
NOTE: After mounting a drive verify that the
drive is mounted can be accomplished using
the VOLINFO command (see
VOLumeINFO
for details).
UMOUNT (none) The UMOUNT command will unmount the
current remote drive. Requires the optional
disk mount feature. See also
