Performing Stripe Group Movement
(StorNext has different mechanisms for moving data stripe groups versus metadata/journal stripe groups.)
Note: During Stripe Group Movement, affinities are preserved when files are moved from one stripe group to another. Consequently, there must be sufficient space on one or more destination stripe groups for any affinities on the source stripe group. (You must add any affinities from the source stripe group to the new stripe group.)
Use the following procedure to perform stripe group movement.
1From the SNFS home page, choose Move Stripe Group from the Admin menu. The Move Stripe Group screen appears, showing the following information for completed moves and moves in progress:
•File System: The name of the file system involved in the move
•Type: Specifies whether the move is for a data stripe group or a metadata/journal stripe group
•Lun/Stripe Group: The name of the lun/stripe group involved in the move
•Start Time: The date and time the move was launched
•Percentage Complete: The current percentage complete status for the move
•Status: For current moves the status will be Progress. For previously completed moves the status will be either Success or Fail.
