Parameters
Example
minna (config) # pfs share modify local-name test remote-path /tmp
server-name mytest mode broadcast frequency 10
minna (config) #
pfs share stop
Description Stops HP EFS RCU operations on a single PFS share.
Syntax pfs share stop [local-name <local name>]
local-name <local
name>
Specifies the local name of the share on the HP EFS WAN
Accelerator to modify.
mode <mode> Specifies the mode:
• broadcast. Provides the branch-office HP EFS WAN Accelerator
with a local read-only copy of data stored on the origin Server.
CIFS clients who mount a broadcast mode file share on the HP
EFS WAN Accelerator cannot make changes to the files in that file
share.
NOTE: If a file is set to read-only on the origin server, when it is
transferred to the HP EFS WAN Accelerator, the read-only attribute is
not preserved. If a file is set to read-only on the HP EFS WAN
Accelerator, it is reflected in the file permissions. If this file is
transferred to the origin file server, the read-only attribute is dropped.
• local. Provides read-write access to a given file share on the
branch-office HP EFS WAN Accelerator. CIFS clients mounting a
local mode file share have read-write access to that share. The
contents of the local mode share are mirrored to the origin server.
Only one PFS on a remote HP EFS WAN Accelerator can access
the mirrored data on the origin server.
CAUTION: Do not make changes to shared files on the origin server
while in local mode. In local mode, the HP EFS WAN Accelerator
overwrites data on your origin server. The HP EFS WAN Accelerator
copy of the data is considered the master copy.
• standalone. Data volume exported only to a proxy file. There is no
server at the data center to which the share has to synchronize data
to. For example, if you want to load temporary data that does not
need to be backed up at a data center.
frequency
<frequency>
Specifies how frequently you want to propagate shares:
•For a local mode the minimum is 60 seconds; there is no upper
limit.
• For broadcast mode the minimum is 1800 seconds; there is no
upper limit.
• The frequency is not applicable to standalone shares.
port <port> Specifies the port for the origin server.
comment
<comment>
Specifies a description of the purpose of the share.
