Creating data volumes without specifying junction points
A data volume can be created without specifying a junction point. The resultant volume is not automatically mounted, and is not available to configure for NAS access. You must mount the volume before you can configure SMB shares or NFS exports for that volume.
Before you begin
The aggregate in which you want to create the volume must already exist.
Example
The following example creates a volume named sales
located on SVM vs1 that is not mounted at a junction point:
cluster1::> volume create -vserver vs1 -volume sales -aggregate aggr3 -size 20GB
[Job 3406] Job succeeded: Successful
cluster1::> volume show -vserver vs1 -junction
