6.2 HP IBRIX 9000 Storage CLI Reference Guide (TA768-96070, December 2012)
Other options for creating a file system
The following options can be used with any of the create commands:
-a
Create a mount point with the same name as the file system and then mount the file system.
-q
Enable quotas on the file system.
-t TIERNAME
Assign the file-system segments to the specified tier.
-o compat=no
Enable 64-bit mode on the file system.
-o compat=yes,maxsegs=n
Create a 32-bit file system and specify the maximum number of segments to allow in the file
system. The valid values for maxsegs are 15, 31, 63, 127, and 255.
If none of these options are specified, the new file system is created with quotas disabled, with no
mount point, and with 32-bit mode compatibility enabled.
View information about file systems
Use the following commands to display details about the file systems configured on the cluster.
Display file system information:
ibrix_fs -i [-f FSLIST] [-x]
The output includes either all file systems or only the file systems in FSLIST, as well as their
component segments. Include -x to omit segment details.
List information about all file systems on all hosts:
ibrix_fs -l
For each file system, the command notes its name, number of segments, whether it is mounted, the
file-system generation, whether quotas and export control are enabled, and whether it is
backward-compatible with 32-bit systems.
Extend a file system
Use any of the following commands to extend a file system.
Extend a file system using the specified logical volumes:
ibrix_fs -e -f FSNAME -s LVLIST [-t TIERNAME]
The file system is extended using the logical volumes in LVLIST. For example, to add logical
volumes ilv1, ilv2, and ilv3 to file system ifs1:
ibrix_fs -e -f ifs1 -s ilv[1-3]
To extend the file system with LVLIST representing tiered segments, include the -t option. If tiering
rules are already defined for this file system, -t is required.
Extend a file system using the specified segment/owner pairs:
ibrix_fs -e -f FSNAME -S LV1:HOSTNAME1,LV2:HOSTNAME2,... [-t TIERNAME]
For example, to add logical volume ilv1 (owned by s1.mycompany.com) to file system ifs1:
ibrix_fs -e -f ifs1 -S ilv1:s1.mycompany.com
To extend the file system with tiered segments, include the -t option. If tiering rules are already
defined for this file system, -t is required.
Extend a file system using the specified physical volumes:
ibrix_fs -e -f FSNAME -p PVLIST [-t TIERNAME]
