Thank you so much Michal!

Hi Raf!

Generally speaking everything works in a quite regular way on Max OS X as on
other *nix platforms. Although it may happen that Max OS X will cache some
attributes even though it is forbidden by mfsmount. It shouldn't be a big
problem, but if it is, you can try option "novncache" or "noubc".

You may want to have dedicated start script for mfsmount. We use the
following solution.

In "/Library/StartupItems" we created subfolder "mfsmount" and put there two
files:

StartupParameters.plist:

{
    Description = "MFS mounter";
    Provides = ("MFS");
    Requires = ("Network");
    OrderPreference = "Late";
}

And a script "mfsmount":
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/mfsmount /mnt/mfs

We also had to copy "mfsmount" from the default folder to /usr/bin (cp
/usr/local/bin/mfsmount /usr/sbin/). Or you may try to change the path in
"mfsount" file.

Hope it helps

As stated here:

http://www.moosefs.org/news-reader/items/MFS_running_on_Mac_OS_X..html

MooseFS native client can be mounted on OS X.
Is there anyone having experience in this field that can contribute some
hints for this task?

Thank you

Bye

Raf
