disable autoextend

dedupe itself will not cause your file system to auto-extend - it might cause you savvol to extend though

Hi,

As already said, dedupe should not trigger the auto extension, but anyway, if you want to disable the auto extension, this is the command :

[nasadmin@CS_NS40_1_MSS ~]$ nas_fs -i flexivel
id = 229
name = flexivel
acl = 0
in_use = True
type = uxfs
worm = off
volume = v356
pool = clar_r1
member_of = root_avm_fs_group_2
rw_servers= server_2
ro_servers=
rw_vdms =
ro_vdms =
auto_ext = hwm=90%,max_size=10240M,virtual_provision=no
deduplication = Off
stor_devs = APM00073700689-000D
disks = d12
disk=d12 stor_dev=APM00073700689-000D addr=c0t1l9 server=server_2
disk=d12 stor_dev=APM00073700689-000D addr=c16t1l9 server=server_2

[nasadmin@CS_NS40_1_MSS ~]$ nas_fs -modify flexivel -auto_extend no
id = 229
name = flexivel
acl = 0
in_use = True
type = uxfs
worm = off
volume = v356
pool = clar_r1
member_of = root_avm_fs_group_2
rw_servers= server_2
ro_servers=
rw_vdms =
ro_vdms =
auto_ext = no,virtual_provision=no
deduplication = Off
stor_devs = APM00073700689-000D
disks = d12
disk=d12 stor_dev=APM00073700689-000D addr=c0t1l9 server=server_2
disk=d12 stor_dev=APM00073700689-000D addr=c16t1l9 server=server_2

yes, if thats what you want

what the vp option does is to tell your clients the max size of the file system instead of the current size

since vp requires auto extension it makes sens that you cant turn off one without the other

Got an error when I tried to run your command
Error 3159: filesystem virtual provisioning is on, cannot turn off auto_extend

So I can't turn off auto_extend because virtual provision is enabled.

I can uncheck the virtual provision box in the GUI. is this safe to do?

thanks
