附件大文件等应用需要直接部署到存储上，安装linux时建议把所有包全勾选上，如果采用默认安装，不同厂家的存储驱动将会很难装上，提示系统少包，甚至少什么包都不太清楚。当把存储分配给你的HBA光纤卡后，在服务器上装好HBA卡驱动并重启系统，就可以用 fdisk -l 命令查看存储信息了。
在使用存储之前需要对存储进行分区操作，在RHEL5.4上用fdisk命令分区最大磁盘分区只能在2T以下，故以下采用parted对存储进行分区：
（红色部分代表需要输入的命令）
[root@oa-1 ~]# fdisk -l //查看磁盘信息

[root@oa-1 ~]# mkdir /storage //创建挂载点
[root@oa-1 ~]# mount /dev/sda1 /storage //挂载存储磁盘
[root@oa-1 ~]#
为了在每次系统启动时自动挂载新分区，需要修改 /etc/fstab 文件来进行自动挂载。在文件的末位加入如下一行：
/dev/sda1 /storage ext3 defaults 1 2
这样服务器每次启动都会自动挂载此分区
