Storage selection rules
The following sections describe storage selection rules:
affinity
confineto
exclude
multipath
select
separateby
strong separateby
You can limit the scope of interpretation of rules to the components of an
application volume, such as its plexes, columns and logs.
See “Compound rules” on page 154.
Multiple arguments to the
confineto, exclude and select storage selection
rules can be combined by using operators. If an operator is not specified, ISP
uses the default operator for the rule.
See “Storage selection rule operators” on page 151.
Note: The =, !=, <, <=, > and >= comparative operators can be used with the
confineto, exclude and select storage selection rules. However, the operand
arguments to the <, <=, > and >= operators must be signed or unsigned
integers that are capable of being represented by 64 or fewer bits. If the
operands are character strings, real numbers, or are integers longer than 64
bits, the result of the comparison may be incorrect.
