Working With File Systems

10On the Disk Settings screen, type valid values and click Next.

Block size field: The block size in bytes for the file system. The block size is the minimum unit of data accessed from physical devices. The default value of 16384 bytes is the recommended setting for best overall efficiency.

Note: If the file system you are adding will be used for deduplication-enabled storage disks, you must accept the default value of 16384 bytes.

Stripe group field: The number of stripe groups for the file system. Selecting a value greater than 1 enables customization to optimize performance and use StorNext features such as dedicated Metadata, Journal and User Data stripe groups.

Note: Quantum recommends that metadata and journals be on a stripe group separate from data. (In some cases, metadata and journals should be on separate stripe groups as well.)

11When a message reminds you to select more than one stripe group if you want an alternate configuration other than the one that provides journal, metadata, and user date, click OK to continue. The Customize Stripe Group screen appears.
