AdministrativeTasks

In addition to providing an immediate store functionality, the fsstore command allows the user to override, on a file basis, the default values for the DataClass parameters that affect storage processing. Two parameters affect how the file data is handled during the storage processing. The first parameter specifies the cleanup action and the second specifies the number of secondary file copies.

Under usual circumstances, files in migration directories are routinely stored to media by initiation of the storage policy by cron. If data must be stored to media before the scheduled application of storage policy, the fsstore command can be issued for individual files.

When running the fsstore command, the user need not specify the media type used to store the data. FileServ selects the media. However, the user can override the default media type by specifying a different media type. An available media that has sufficient space and contains the same class of data is selected. If no appropriate nonblank media are available, the software uses media of the appropriate DataClass group (in which all files are deleted), or unused blank media.

The user specifies a minimum file size for storage, the drive pool to use for storage, and the number of file copies to create. The user also specifies that the file is not to be clustered.
