If you've provisioned an Oracle Compute Cloud instance (Linux) and have already created a storage volume for it during the wizard-based installation through the My Services Console, then you need to mount your volume on your Linux box:
1. Find out your mounted volumes.
[root@d6c1c9 ~]# df -mYou'll notice that on a fresh installation, your 3 main mount points are on the /dev/xvdb device:
Filesystem 1M-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/xvdb3 17522 5347 11283 33% /
tmpfs 7392 0 7392 0% /dev/shm
/dev/xvdb1 477 121 327 27% /boot
- /boot is on /dev/xvdb1
- /dev/shm is on /dev/xvdb2 (although not clear here)
- / is on /dev/xvdb3
2. View the list of your devices.
[root@d6c1c9 ~]# ls /dev/xvd*Here you will notice a new device called /dev/xvdc which is not used in your previous step. This is likely your unused storage volume.
/dev/xvdb /dev/xvdb1 /dev/xvdb2 /dev/xvdb3 /dev/xvdc
3. Create a filesystem. Note that this will trash all data in this device.
[root@d6c1c9 ~]# mkfs -t ext4 /dev/xvdc4. Now create a directory, mount it, and change ownership of it.

[root@d6c1c9 ~]# mkdir /u015. Now you'll see your file system mounted and ready to use.
[root@d6c1c9 ~]# mount /dev/xvdc /u01
[root@d6c1c9 ~]# chown oracle:oinstall /u01
[root@d6c1c9 ~]# df -m
Filesystem 1M-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/xvdb3 17522 5347 11283 33% /
tmpfs 7392 0 7392 0% /dev/shm
/dev/xvdb1 477 121 327 27% /boot
/dev/xvdc 302380 191 286830 1% /u01
6. Don't forget to add an entry in /etc/fstab so that your file system is mounted on server reboot.
[root@d6c1c9 ~]# echo "/dev/xvdc /u01 ext4 defaults,nofail 0 2" >> /etc/fstab
