Issue with missing /mydata mount in my experiment

[Yazhuo Zhang]

Hey there,

I have an experiment here: https://www.cloudlab.us/status.php?uuid=b0bb060a-9faa-11f0-bc80-e4434b2381fc

In this setup, I attached a longterm dataset, and according to the experiment configuration, the dataset file system should be mounted at /mydata. However, after logging into the node, I do not see /mydata mounted. Could you please check if the dataset was attached correctly?

Thank you very much for your help!

Best,
Yazhuo

Your dataset was apparently not unmounted cleanly on the last use so it
is trying to `fsck` it in your current experiment. Unfortunately, since
it is a large dataset, the fsck runs for longer than we expect and we
timeout.

I am running the fsck on the storage server itself so it will not timeout.
I will let you know when it is ready for use again. You can leave the
current experiment running.

Okay, you are good to go again. /mydata is mounted.
