Configuring a regular FSE partition on the Windows platform

After you have configured FSE media pools and prepared an HSM file system, you can configure an FSE partition as follows:

1.Depending on the location of the corresponding HSM file system, on the consolidated FSE system or external FSE client, run the mountvol command at the command prompt. From the command output, select the volume that will store the HSM file system.

This is an example of running mountvol and the mountvol output:

C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\FSE\bin>mountvol

...

Possible values for VolumeName along with current mount points are: \\?\Volume{97d09c72-b208-11d7-8f8b-806d6172696f}\

C:\ \\?\Volume{97d09c73-b208-11d7-8f8b-806d6172696f}\

D:\ \\?\Volume{f6f3e1b6-b2ac-11d7-9c99-00b0d02fadef}\

D:\hsm_fs_folder \\?\Volume{97d09c71-b208-11d7-8f8b-806d6172696f}\
