3. Mount a Volume
# Create a mount point (once)
sudo mkdir -p /mnt/data
# Mount
sudo mass-ctl mount --volume-id my-volume -m /mnt/data
# Verify mount
df -h /mnt/data && ls /mnt/data
Finding the volume ID
Ask your department manager, or find it in the Dashboard under Storage → Volumes.
Key Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--read-only | Mount as read-only |
--allow-other | Make the mount usable by every user on the host |
--no-fstab | Temporary mount that does not survive a reboot — the only way to mount without root |
--mount-point / -m | Mount point path (short form equivalent) |
info
Mounting registers reboot recovery automatically, so your mount comes back after a reboot — no extra flag needed.
