SNFS
Setting Up StorNext FS on Solaris 6-9
STRIPEGROUP DEFINITION section - Describes a group of disks that comprise a stripe
group. One or more stripe groups describe the entire file system. A stripe group is the
smallest entity that can be manipulated by a system administrator using the File System
Administration utility (cvadmin).
Examples of stripe groups appear in the configuration file.
• Find the stripe group named RegularFiles.
• Edit the Node entries so that all the disk names are listed, with each entry followed by
a space and then the stripe order number (0, 1, 2, etc.).
For example:
Step 3 Save, name and exit the /usr/cvfs/config/<file_system_name>.cfg file.
Step 4 Verify that fsmpm is running so that cvmkfs works properly. Enter:
# ps -ef | grep fsmpm
NOTE
All disks defined in any given stripe group must have the same number of sectors,
as reported by cvlabel -1.
NOTE
Make sure you have a <file_system_name>.cfg file for each uniquely named
StorNext File System on the StorNext FS server.
