The following stripe groups cannot be selected:

An exclusive stripe group

A metadata stripe group

A journal stripe group

6After the Status screen informs you that the affinity was successfully added, click Close. The Add, Modify, or Delete Affinities screen (figure 78 on page 128) appears, showing in the Affinities list the new affinity you just added.

7Start the file system as described in Making a File System on page 106.

When you use SNFS to add an affinity, you must set the affinity in a directory on the selected file system. (If you use the Add Affinity Wizard, this step is done automatically.)
