Configuring tiers and migrating data using the CLI

Use the following command to define the primary tier:

ibrix_fs_tune -f FILESYSTEM -h SERVERS -t TIERNAME

The following example specifies Tier1 as the primary tier:

ibrix_fs_tune -f ifs1 -h ibrix1a,ibrix1b -t Tier1

This policy takes precedence over any other file allocation polices defined for the file system.

NOTE:

This example assumes users access the files over CIFS, NFS, FTP, or HTTP. If StoreAll

clients are used, the allocation policy must be applied to the clients. (Use -h to specify the clients.)

Writing tiering rules

A tiering policy consists of one or more rules that specify how data is migrated from one tier to
another. You can write rules using the Management Console, or you can write them directly to the
configuration database using the ibrix_migrator -A command.
