Building a Shared Media to use with RAFW

These are the steps that need to be done to create a shared media to use with Rational Automation Framework for WebSphere (RAFW).

I'll create the shared media in a Red Hat 5 Server using NFS.
To create this, you'll need to run the following commands:

1. Check nfs-utils is installed or not using
yum list nfs-utils

2. Edit /etc/exports , add dir you want share with network information and permission
(In this example, I'll add the sharedmedia folder and allow read and write access to all the machines with IP addresses between 172.16.0.0 and 172.16.255.255
vi /etc/exports
/sharedmedia 172.16.0.0/255.255.0.0(rw)

3. Restart nfs service
service nfs restart


Then, on the framework server and on target systems, execute the following command:

mount 172.16.92.130:/sharedmedia /sharedmedia

Cheers!
