Follow the instructions here to use the
Advanced File System Conguration
option. The Advanced option
allows you to create multiple le systems and create multiple LUNs for data.
1. Choose the Advanced File System Conguration option in the initial File System Wizard menu to view
the menu below.
Provide a name for the File System being created.
The
Block Size
,
Journal Size
and
Inode Ratio
settings here are optimal for both performance and
space utilization on a le system used for video and audio applications. These cannot be changed later.
If you are going to change them, make sure you carefully consider how the new settings will affect the
performance and efciency of storage utilization. Please read the discussion in “Advanced Conguration
Options for the File System” on page 68.
You can also choose to
Enable Quota
to use quotas for user groups or individual users on the le
system. This can be changed after the le system has been created (it requires stopping the le
system).
Click on Next to continue.
