Follow the instructions here to use the
Advanced File System Conguration
option. The Advanced option
allows you to create multiple le systems and create multiple LUNs for data.
1. Choose the Advanced File System Conguration 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 efciency of storage utilization. Please read the discussion in “Advanced Conguration
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).
