The value of %InstallPath% depends on the choice made in the FSE installation process. It defaults to C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\FSE.

1.Locate the desired template in the newconfig directory and copy it to the selected directory, in this example named MyConfiguration, using the following commands:

Linux specific

#cd MyConfiguration

#cp /opt/fse/newconfig/fse-partition.cfg Partition01Config

Windows specific

D:\>cd MyConfiguration

D:\MyConfiguration>copy

C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\FSE\newconfig\fse-partition.cfg

Partition01Config

2.Edit the template and modify the parameter values relevant for the new FSE partition.

NOTE: While modifying the template, preserve the double quote characters (") that surround the values of some variables. Removing these characters might lead to problems in certain cases.

3.To configure a new partition, apply the modified template running the following command: fsepartition --add Partition01Config

You have configured a new FSE partition. This FSE partition configuration is stored in the configuration database as the first respective configuration revision.

Modifying the configuration of an FSE resource

In this example, you want to change the parameter values of your migration policy. Since these parameters are written in the FSE partition configuration file, you will use the fsepartition command followed by the relevant command options, which you can use in a similar way when re-configuring any of the FSE resources.

1.Check the names of the configured partitions in order to get the exact name of the partition for which you want to modify a migration policy, using the following command:

fsepartition --list [--detail]

2.Copy the parameters of the selected partition (in this example named Partition01) to a file, named for example MyFile in the current directory:

fsepartition --show Partition01 > MyFile

3.Edit the created configuration file and modify the parameter values relevant for your policies using any text editor.

4.Apply the new configuration using the following command:

fsepartition --modify Partition01 MyFile

This FSE partition configuration is stored in the configuration database with a new revision number.

Reverting to a previous revision of an FSE resource configuration

In this example, 5 configuration revisions exist for a particular FSE partition, and you want to revert from the current to the configuration revision 4. You will retrieve the chosen fourth revision from the configuration database, and then reapply it.

1.Check the names of the configured partitions in order to get the exact name of the partition for which you want revert to the previous revision, using the following command:

fsepartition --list [--detail]
