Verify storage access on the host

Before using the volume, you verify that the host can write data to the volume and read it back.

Before you begin

You must have initialized the volume and formatted it with a file system.

  1. On the host, copy one or more files to the mount point of the disk.
  2. Copy the files back to a different folder on the original disk.
  3. Run the diff command to compare the copied files to the originals.

Remove the file and folder that you copied.
