6.5 HP StoreAll OS CLI Reference Guide

ibrix_fs
Creates, extends, and manages file systems.
NOTE: When using the GUI to create and mount a file system, quotas are enabled by default.
This default is not available in the CLI. If you create and mount a file system using the ibrix_fs
command, you must be sure to enable quotas during creation. If you enable quotas at a later time,
be aware that this requires the file system to be unmounted, which affects system availability.
Description
ibrix_fs is used to:
• Create a file system from physical or logical volumes.
• List information about file systems (including snapshot file systems).
• Extend a file system by adding new segments.
• Delete a file system.
• Migrate segments to another file serving node.
• Enable, disable, or display data retention, auditing, and Express Query settings on a file
system.
• Enable or disable export control on a file system.
• Assign or unassign a standby server.
Synopsis
Create a file system
All file systems are created in 64-bit mode by default. If you must change to 32-bit, use the
ibrix_fs_tune command with -d or -e (to disable or enable 32-bit mode).
To create a file system, execute one of the following ibrix_fs -c -f commands.
Create a file system with the specified segments:
ibrix_fs -c -f FSNAME -s LVLIST [-t TIERNAME] [-a] [-q] [-o
OPTION1=VALUE1,OPTION2=VALUE2,...] [-t TIERNAME] [
The command creates the file system using the segments specified in LVLIST. The round-robin
method is used to assign segments to file serving nodes.
Create a file system and assign the specified segments to the specified file serving nodes:
ibrix_fs -c -f FSNAME -S LV1:HOSTNAME1,LV2:HOSTNAME2,... [-a] [-q] [-o
OPTION1=VALUE1,OPTION2=VALUE2,...] [-t TIERNAME]
The command creates file system FSNAME and assigns specific segments (LV1, LV2, ...) to specific
file serving nodes (HOSTNAME1, HOSTNAME2, ...). The first logical volume listed becomes the root
segment for the file system. The round-robin method is used to assign segments to file serving nodes.
