Mounting a File System Times Out

Symptom

When a file system is mounted to servers using the mount command, message timed out is displayed.

Possible Causes

• Cause 1: The network status is not stable.
• Cause 2: The network connection is abnormal.
• Cause 3: The server that mounts the file system runs Ubuntu18 or later.

Fault Diagnosis

After the network fault is excluded, run the mount command again.

Solution

• Cause 1 and Cause 2: The network status is not stable or the network connection is abnormal.

  Re-mount the file system after the network issue is addressed.

  • If the patch is uninstalled successfully, no further action is required.
  • If the problem persists, see the solution for cause 3.
• Cause 3: The server that mounts the file system runs Ubuntu18 or later.
  1. Check whether the server running Ubuntu18 or later was created from a private image.
     • If yes, go to 3.
     • If no, go to 2.
  2. Convert the public image server to a private image server.
     1. Create a private image based on the existing ECS. For details, see section "Creating an Image" in the Elastic Cloud Server User Guide.
     2. Use the private image created in 2.a to create an ECS or change the ECS OS to the private image created in 2.a. For details, see section "Changing the OS" in the Elastic Cloud Server User Guide.
  3. Log in to the server and mount the file system again.
