Chapter 10. Troubleshooting

Xsan will not mount any volume that has the same name as any existing volume or folder located at /Volumes/

Unlike some mounting mechanisms that automatically resolve name conflicts (for example, the Finder appends characters to each mounted volume name), the Xsan backend agent simply won’t mount the volumes.

To avoid this issue, create a unique name for each volume to be mounted.
