PowerScaleOneFS CLI Command Reference

isi filepool apply

Applies all file pool policies to the specified file or directory path. If no policy matches the file or directory path, OneFS applies the default file pool policy.

Syntax

isi filepool apply <files>
        [{--verbose | -v}]
        [{--quiet | -q}]
        [{--nop | -n}]
        [{--recurse | -r}]
        [{--stats | -s}]
        [{--no-restripe | -d}]
        [{--help | -h}]

Options

<files>
Files to be processed. Must be within /ifs.
--verbose
Print settings to be applied.
--quiet | -q

Suppresses warning messages.

--nop | -n

Calculates the specified settings without actually applying them. This option is best used with –-verbose or --stats.

--recurse | -r

Specifies recursion through directories.

--stats | -s

Displays statistics on the files processed.

--dont-restripe | -d

Changes the per-file policies without restriping the file.

--help | -h
Display help for this command.

Examples

These examples show the results of running isi filepool apply in verbose mode. In the examples, the output shows the results of comparing the path specified with each file pool policy. The recurse option is set so that all files in the /ifs/data/projects path are matched against all file pool policies. The first policy listed is always the system default policy. In this example, the second match is to the file pool policy Technical Data.

This example shows the result of using the --nop option to calculate the results that would be produced by applying the file pool policy.
