Specifies whether SmartPools manages I/O optimization settings for files.
--protect-directories-one-level-higher {yes | no}
Protects directories at one level higher.
--global-namespace-acceleration-enabled {yes | no}
Enables or disables global namespace acceleration.
--virtual-hot-spare-deny-writes {yes | no}

--virtual-hot-spare-hide-spare {yes | no}
Reduces the amount of available space for the virtual hot spare.
--virtual-hot-spare-limit-drives <integer>
Specifies the maximum number of virtual drives.
--virtual-hot-spare-limit-percent <integer>
Limits the percentage of node resources that is allocated to virtual hot spare.
--spillover-target <string>
Specifies the target for spillover.
--spillover-anywhere
Globally sets spillover to anywhere.
--spillover-enabled {yes | no}
Enables or disables spillover. If spillover is enabled, writes will spill over into pools within spillover_target as needed.
