The volume probably is hidden from the GUI. You can see the flags and see if the hidden flag is set with:


ls -lOd /Volumes/Xsan


If it's hidden, it would look like this example file:

$ ls -lOd /tmp/a_hidden_file -rw-r--r--@ 1 claudio wheel hidden 0 Dec 16 18:02 /tmp/a_hidden_file


You can unhide a hidden file with chflags(1). For example:


sudo chflags nohidden /Volumes/Xsan

Xsan volume disappeared
