The Data Retention tab allows you to change the data retention configuration. The file system must
be unmounted. See
“Configuring data retention on existing file systems” (page 276)
for more
information.
NOTE:
Data retention cannot be enabled on a file system created on StoreAll software 5.6 or
earlier versions until the file system is upgraded.
The Allocation, Segment Preference, and Host Allocation tabs are used to modify file allocation
policies and to specify segment preferences for file serving nodes and StoreAll clients. See
for more information.
Creating a file system manually from physical volumes
This procedure is equivalent to using ibrix_fs to create a file system from physical volumes in
a single step. Instead of a single command, you build the file system components individually:
1.
Discover the physical volumes in the system. Use the ibrix_pv command.
2.
Create volume groups from the discovered physical volumes. Use the ibrix_vg command.
3.
Create logical volumes (also called segments) from volume groups. Use the ibrix_lv
command.
4.
Create the file system from the new logical volumes. Use the ibrix_fs command.
See the
for details about these commands.
