3.7 Step 6: (Optional): Exclude external SOFS storage clusters from
P&U
IMPORTANT: This procedure applies only if you attached external Scale-Out File Server (SOFS) storage
clusters to the CPS Standard stamp.
If you attached external Scale-Out-File-Server (SOFS) storage clusters to the CPS Standard stamp (for
additional workload capacity), you must exclude them from P&U. If you do not, P&U will fail.
To exclude external storage clusters, do the following:
1. Open the VMM console.
2. In the Fabric workspace, under Storage, click File Servers.
3. In the File Servers, File Shares pane, right-click the external storage cluster, and then click
Properties.
4. On the General tab, in the Description box, enter {CPSExternalComponent}, and then click OK.
