How to find the system volume path

Last modified date: 2020-09-04

Answer

For some command-line operations, you may need to know the system volume path. The system volume is usually the first data volume created in your NAS, and will store certain system files in addition to your own data.

Here are the procedures to find the system volume path

1.Log in to your NAS with SSH

2.Run getcfg SHARE_DEF defVolMP -f /etc/config/def_share.info to get the system volume path.

Run on a HAL model (for instance: TS-453B)

[~] # getcfg SHARE_DEF defVolMP -f /etc/config/def_share.info

/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA

Run on a Legacy model with RAID setup (for instance:TS-220)

[~] # getcfg SHARE_DEF defVolMP -f /etc/config/def_share.info

/share/MD0_DATA

Run on a Legacy model with single disk setup (for instance:TS-120)

[~] # getcfg SHARE_DEF defVolMP -f /etc/config/def_share.info

/share/HDA_DATA
