Note: If the file system you are adding will be used for deduplication-enabled storage disks, you must accept the default value of 64 kilobytes.

Metadata, Journal, and User Data checkboxes: Enable one or more of these options (check the boxes) to create a location for metadata, journaling or user data.

To enable metadata to be placed on the stripe group, select the Metadata checkbox.

To enable journaling to be placed on the stripe group, select the Journal checkbox.

To enable user data to be placed on the stripe group, select the User Data checkbox.

Note: Quantum recommends that your user data be on a different stripe group than your metadata and journal data.
