Modify a file pool policy

You can modify the name, description, filter criteria, and the protection and I/O optimization settings applied by a file pool policy.

CAUTION

If existing file pool policies direct data to a specific storage pool, do not configure other file pool policies with anywhere for the Data storage target option. Because the specified storage pool is included when you use anywhere, target specific storage pools to avoid unintentional file storage locations.

  1. Run the isi filepool policies list command to view a list of available file pool policies.

    A tabular list of policies and their descriptions appears.

  2. Run the isi filepool policies view command to view the current settings of a file pool policy.
    The following example displays the settings of a file pool policy named ARCHIVE_OLD.
    isi filepool policies view ARCHIVE_OLD
  3. Run the isi filepool policies modify command to change a file pool policy.
    The following example modifies the settings of a file pool policy named ARCHIVE_OLD.
    isi filepool policies modify ARCHIVE_OLD --description 
    "Move older files to archive storage" --data-storage-target TIER_A 
    --data-ssd-strategy metadata-write --begin-filter --file-type=file 
    --and --birth-time=2013-01-01 --operator=lt --and --accessed-time=
    2013-09-01 --operator=lt --end-filter

Changes to the file pool policy are applied when the next SmartPools job runs. However, you can also manually run the SmartPools job immediately.
