write-policy string • write-back: Write-back caching does not wait for data to be completely
written to disk before signaling the host that the write is complete. This is the
preferred setting for a fault-tolerant environment because it improves the
performance of write operations and throughput. This is the default.
• write-through: Write-through caching significantly impacts performance
by waiting for data to be completely written to disk before signaling the host
that the write is complete. Use this setting only when operating in an
environment with low or no fault tolerance.
write-policy-
numeric
uint32 Numeric equivalents for write-policy values.
