For file and object storage use cases, you must create a filesystem on the volume. Without a filesystem, clients are unable to use the volume. To add a filesystem to a volume, use the command: applications filesystems add --application=<name> --volumes=<names....

Creating a share requires a Network Attached Server (NAS). Note: The volume that you want to share must have a filesystem. A volume cannot have two different shares on the same path. Any directory path of a volume can be shared through the Network File Syste...

Object storage is a storage architecture that manages data as distinct units called objects. Each object contains all of the data associated with it and is assigned a unique identifier. The objects are stored in a flat address space, rather than in a hierarchi...

You can create and pair floating IPs using the command line interface (CLI) or the web interface. For more information about floating IPs and how they are used in the StorONE system, see Floating IPs. Creating a floating IP for NAS or object store Before you c...

The StorONE system includes a robust and flexible replication solution that can be used for high availability and disaster recovery (DR). You can configure replication at the virtual storage container (VSC) level, giving you maximum flexibility to meet your da...

Before you can replicate a virtual storage container (VSC, also referred to as a volume in the documentation and user interfaces), you must create a replication floating IP on the source and target StorONE deployments. The replication floating IP is distinct f...

Before you begin Before you can replicate a file-based virtual storage container (NFS or CIFS/SMB), you must first make sure: You have installed and configured the Multi System Manager (MSM) and witness service. Pools with names matching the pools used by the...

Before you begin Before you can replicate an object store, you must first make sure: You have installed and configured the Multi System Manager (MSM) and witness service. Pools with names matching the pools used by the source volume exist on the target system...

Terminology A command that follows another command is called a subcommand. For example, in the systems list command list is a subcommand of systems. Any string that begins with a hyphen is called an option. An option cannot come before a command or s...

The S1 system provides a powerful command line interface (CLI) tool that can help you get more done. It supports auto-completion and interactive help, so you can quickly find the commands you need and get the information you need. By learning how to use the CL...

The StorONE command line interface (CLI) provides five fundamental commands that allow users to manage and control the CLI itself: exit To exit the CLI application, run the command exit. logout To logout from the remote connection, use the logout command. This...

The StorONE (S1) system may be accessed by multiple users. Using the S1 CLI client, you can list, create, edit, and delete users. Create a new user To create a new user, use the users create command. Usage: users create <name> --password=<password> --role=<per...

A typical StorONE (S1) system consists of a highly available (HA) two-node cluster. The S1 system that manages the node servers and their peripherals. Each node has its own internal storage where the S1 operating system resides. Both nodes connect to an exter...

All StorONE (S1) systems connect to a management station, also known as a relay. The command line interface (CLI) client connects to the relay, and can manage any systems connected to that relay. You can use the systems command to list and select systems conn...

In the StorONE system, an application is a logical namespace for grouping virtual storage containers (VSCs, also referred to as volumes within the user interfaces and documentation). Using the command line interface (CLI), you can list, create, edit, and delet...

A volume is a collection of blocks presented to the operating environment as a single disk-like storage unit. In many systems, including Linux and Windows, a logical volume can span multiple physical disk drives. In the StorONE (S1) system, the underlying bloc...

The S1 CLI allows you to generate an encryption key. You can use this key to encrypt the consistency group. Notice that there is no direct command to encrypt the consistency group. When creating a new volume, you have the option to encrypt it. When you encrypt...

  You can take snapshots manually for volumes or consistency groups. To take a snapshot of a volume or consistency group, use the application snapshots take command. Usage: applications snapshots take --all|(--application=<name> --volume=<name>)|(--cgid...

You can create file Server Message Block (SMB) or Network File System (NFS) file shares on the StorONE system. File shares allow multiple users to access files simultaneously on a network attached storage (NAS) server. Before you begin To create a share ...

A logical volume provides storage that can be used in different ways. For example, you can use a logical volume to create block-level, object-level, or file-level storage. Adding file systems File systems are required for NAS and Object storage. To add a fil...
