Preposition Configuration Mode Commands
To create and modify preposition directives on a WAAS device for prepositioning files for WAFS, use
the accelerator cifs preposition global configuration command.
accelerator cifs preposition directive_id
Syntax Description
Defaults No default behavior or values.
Command Modes global configuration
Device Modes application-accelerator
Usage Guidelines Use the accelerator cifs preposition command to create and edit preposition directives to be used with
the transparent CIFS accelerator. A preposition directive defines a set of files that are to be prepositioned
on the WAE device.
Within preposition configuration mode, you can use the various commands (server, root, scan-type,
schedule, and so on) to configure a preposition directive. After you are done defining and scheduling
the preposition directive, you must use the command to enable it. To return to global configuration
mode, enter the exit command at the preposition configuration mode prompt.
Note We recommend that you use the WAAS Central Manager GUI to configure preposition directives. For
more information, see the “Creating a Preposition Directive” section in the Cisco Wide Area Application
Services Configuration Guide.
Note If you create a preposition directive from the CLI before the secure store on the WAE is initialized, you
must wait at least two datafeed poll cycles (10 minutes by default) before initializing the secure store;
otherwise, the preposition directive will not propagate to the Central Manager because the credentials
will not be able to be decrypted on the WAE.
Examples The following example shows how to enter preposition configuration mode and configure a preposition
directive using the accelerator cifs preposition command:
WAE(config)# accelerator cifs preposition 1
WAE(config-preposition)# credentials username administrator domain PRINT password 0 foo
directive_id Preposition directive ID of an existing preposition directive that you want to
change or a new directive that you want to create.
