SNFS

Examples of stripe groups appear in the configuration file.

Find the stripe group named RegularFiles.

Edit the Node entries so that all the disk names are listed, with each entry followed by a space and then the stripe order number (0, 1, 2, etc.).

For example:

[StripeGroup RegularFiles]

Status UP

Type Regular

Read Enabled

Write Enabled

StripeBreadth 64

Node CvfsDisk0 0

Node CvfsDisk1 1

Node CvfsDisk2 2

Node CvfsDisk3 3

Step 3 Save, name and exit the /usr/cvfs/config/<file_system_name>.cfg file.

NOTE

Make sure you have a <file_system_name>.cfg file for each uniquely named

 

StorNext File System on the StorNext FS server.

Step 4 Verify that fsmpm is running so that cvmkfs works properly. Enter:

# ps -efgrep fsmpm

Step 5 Initialize StorNext FS by running the following commands.

This step cannot be undone and all data on the file system will be CAUTION lost, so make sure you are ready to initialize the file system before

you proceed.

#cd /usr/cvfs/bin/cvmkfs <file_system_name>

#cp ../examples/fsmlist.example ./fsmlist
