FluidFS System Management for FS Series Appliances

This section contains information about basic FluidFS cluster system management. These tasks are performed using the Dell Storage Manager Client.

NAS Access

FluidFS supports the Unicode /UTF-8 encoding, allowing concurrent access from any UTF-8 compatible client. All NAS interfaces expect UTF-8 characters for file, folder/directory, share, and other names.

Consequently, all names are internally maintained and managed in UTF-8 format. While individual file and directory names are each limited to 255 bytes, the number of characters might be further limited, due to the variable-width nature of the UTF-8 encoding.

Management Access

Management data items, such as volume names, share names, directory names, user names, description fields, and so on, are all maintained in UTF-8 format.

For CLI access, UTF-8 terminal applications, such as XTERM, should be used. Terminal applications that do not support UTF-8 characters, such as KTERM, are not recommended.
