Use the data volume mount points from Step 1b in this step.

Open a terminal (SSH or local to the system) and ensure the prompt is logged in as a user who has read, write, and execute permissions on the SAP HANA data persistence mount point. The data persistence mount points and each host they are attached to were identified in step 1b. The “fsfreeze” Linux utility will be used to halt any IO to the volume and ensure consistency.

Freeze the filesystem of each data persistence mount point using the fsfreeze utility.
