Disk is not mounted after OS install?

postcd · 05-23-2014, 07:21 AM

I got physical dedicated server from one reputable server provider. And using their OS image install system i applied debian 6.x 64. Server has 2 SSD and one SATA. I setup software raid 1 during installation on SSDs but i dont see anything that looks like my HDD setup..
I mean server should contain:

#Onboard: Corsair CSSD-F120GB2
DRIVE1 /dev/sda
#Onboard: Corsair CSSD-F120GB2
DRIVE2 /dev/sdb
#Onboard: SAMSUNG HD753LJ (700gb+)
###DRIVE3 /dev/sdc

But this is df -h:

Quote:

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md2 98G 696M 93G 1% /
tmpfs 12G 0 12G 0% /lib/init/rwudev 12G 192K 12G 1% /dev
tmpfs 12G 0 12G 0% /dev/shm
/dev/md1 496M 31M 440M 7% /boot

I have been told that i need to mount 700+GB hdd: "add it to fstab our mount it manually via mount command"
Can you please advice on how to proceed, how to do it properly so its mounted after each start? I thought Debian will setup disks automatically.

Your actual hard disks as seen with

Code:

fdisk -l

have been arranged with mdadm to the form you see in df.

Check what you've got that you can actually mount; or what is free space on which you can make additional volumes you can mount.

your df -h is showing a drive mounted at / for 98G with 93G free and a second partition /boot of 496M with 440M free. md# is either a software or hardware raid configuration. typically its a software or a FRAID (fake RAID) configuration.
