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

Before you begin

Make sure you have the following:

  • An initialized volume that is formatted with a file system.

Steps

  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.

After you finish

Remove the file and folder that you copied.
