Oracle Vm virtual machine Linux adds disk and mounts (super detailed)

1. Add a disk to the virtual machine

1. Select the server with the disk to be added, right-click Settings – Storage – Controller – Add Hard Disk

2. new disk
   
3. Select disk type
   
4. allocate size to disk
   
5. Set the required size
   
6. Select the disk you just created
   
7. save and exit
   

2. linux mount disk

1. Open the server that just added the disk to view the disk partition information

fdisk -l

The information is given /dev/sdb is the disk we just created
2. Add partitions to the disk

fdisk /dev/sdb

Enter the interactive mode and start typing for the disk partition n, then press Enter all the way, and finally enter w

3. After the default partition, you need to format the partition. Before that, you can check the partition in the system

df -Th

4. Here I follow the format in my system to format

mkfs.xfs /dev/sdb1

为什么是/dev/sdb1涉及名字变化问题这里就不多说了

5. Mount the disk

mount /dev/sdb1 /data #Mount the disk /dev/sdb1 to the /data directory

Check if the mount is successful

df -h #View disk partition information

6. Boot up and mount automatically

blkid /dev/sdb1 #View disk id information
vim /etc/fstab #Modify configuration file

Add the disk information to the /etc/fstab file and restart the server
