Guide you how? Provide more information. Are you mounting these via NFS to the Solaris box? Do you have the disks locally mounted in the linux system(s)?

Read the man page on mount first, and see if that answers your questions. Please provide more information about your environment, before we can 'guide you'.

TB0ne is right...we need more information if we are to help you.

You can share Solaris UFS disks via NFS...

The UFS Disks which i want to mount on my Linux is located on Storage means it is SAN DISKS which is showing on my machine through HBA Card

Good to know...we don't know your environment until you tell us. You don't say if you're able to see these volumes through your HBA, or how far you've gotten, and still haven't provided enough information.

Have you read the man page on the mount command? http://linux.die.net/man/8/mount

Examples are easily found through Google:

mount -t ufs -o ro,ufstype=sunx86 /dev/sdXY /mnt/solaris

Replace the /dev/sdXY and the mount point with whatever your system needs.
