DirectCloud

Mount DirectCloud on Linux with the RaiDrive CLI. Pass the service, service key and company code as options, then enter your DirectCloud username and password.

To get the account, keys or IDs this needs, see Before you begin in the DirectCloud guide for the Windows app.

raidrivecli add directcloud \
    --dc-service <service> \
    --dc-key <key> \
    --dc-company <code>

If you add storage with only the options shown above, you will be prompted to enter a username and password.

raidrivecli add directcloud \
    --dc-service <service> \
    --dc-key <key> \
    --dc-company <code>
Username: <username>
Password: ********

Alternatively, a username or password can be specified as options.

raidrivecli add directcloud \
    --dc-service <service> --dc-key <key> --dc-company <code> \
    -u <username>
raidrivecli add directcloud \
    --dc-service <service> --dc-key <key> --dc-company <code> \
    -u <username> -p [password]

Warning

Shell commands are logged in history. If possible, we recommend not specifying the -p or --password option with a value.

If a mount directory is not specified, it will be mounted to a directory such as /mnt/directcloud under /mnt. To specify the mount directory, use the --mount-path option.

raidrivecli add directcloud \
    --dc-service <service> --dc-key <key> --dc-company <code> \
    --mount-path /myservices/directcloud

Additional options

--dc-service <service>                  service
--dc-key <key>                          key
--dc-company <code>                     company code
--username, -u <username>               username
