Create an orangefs config file.
Create an orangefs config file by running pvfs2-genconfig and
specifying a target config file. Pvfs2-genconfig will prompt you
through. Generally it works fine to take the defaults, but you
should use your server's hostname, rather than "localhost" when
it comes to that question.

/opt/ofs/bin/pvfs2-genconfig /etc/pvfs2.conf

Create an /etc/pvfs2tab file.

Localhost is fine for your pvfs2tab file:

echo tcp://localhost:3334/orangefs /pvfsmnt pvfs2 defaults,noauto 0 0 > \
