Choosing the Target Storage
You choose the target storage for a fileset with the same commands that are used for
emptying a share.Either a share or a share farm is a valid target for the fileset. From
gbl-ns-vol-plc mode, use one of two
target rules to set the fileset’s storage target:
target share share-name
where share-name (1-64 characters) is a share from the current volume. Use
the
show global-config namespace command to see the shares in each
volume: see “Showing Namespace Configuration” on page 7-25.
target share-farm share-farm-name
where share-farm-name (1-64 characters) is a share farm within the current
volume. The
show namespace command also shows the share farms in each
of the namespace’s volumes.
For example, the following command sequence selects a share, “bills,” as the home
for all files matched by the “docs2das8” rule. (The volume share, “bills,” maps to a
share on the “das8” filer.)
bstnA6k(gbl)# namespace wwmed
bstnA6k(gbl-ns[wwmed])# volume /acct
bstnA6k(gbl-ns-vol[wwmed~/acct])# place-rule docs2das8
bstnA6k(gbl-ns-vol-plc[wwmed~/acct~docs2das8])# target share bills
bstnA6k(gbl-ns-vol-plc[wwmed~/acct~docs2das8])# ...
As another example, the following command sequence selects a share farm, “fm3,” as
the target for a different placement rule:
bstnA6k(gbl)# namespace wwmed
bstnA6k(gbl-ns[wwmed])# volume /acct
bstnA6k(gbl-ns-vol[wwmed~/acct])# place-rule distributeFiles
bstnA6k(gbl-ns-vol-plc[wwmed~/acct~distributeFiles])# target share-farm fm3
