Analyzing the space impact of enforcing a placement policy
The following example uses the fsppadm analyze command to analyze the impact
if the enforce operation is performed on the file placement policy represented in
the XML policy document /tmp/policy1.xml for the mount point /mnt1. The
command builds the I/O temperature database if necessary.
To analyze the space impact of enforcing a placement policy
Analyze the impact of enforcing the file placement policy represented in the
XML policy document /tmp/policy1.xml for the mount point /mnt1:
# fsppadm analyze -F /tmp/policy1.xml -i /mnt1
Querying which files will be affected by enforcing a placement policy
The following example uses the fsppadm query command to generate a list of
files that will be affected by enforcing a placement policy. The command provides
details about where the files currently reside, to where the files will be relocated,
and which rule in the placement policy applies to the files.
To query which files will be affected by enforcing a placement policy
Query the files that will be affected:
# fsppadm query /mnt1/dir1/dir2 /mnt2 /mnt1/dir3
