2.29 Reserved Filesystems and Directories
What is the function of the .attic$ directory?
The .attic$ directory is present by default at the root of all user created volumes.
Deleted files are temporarily stored here while being processed. Copying user data
here will result in that data being deleted.
What is the function of the /etc directory?
The /etc directory stores configuration and log files for the StorEdge. It is strongly
recommended that you do not write data to /cvol or modify data on /cvol. This
volume should only be accessed when following specific instructions from official
documentation or technical support.
What is the function of the /proc volume?
This is the procfs pseudo filesystem. It contains technical detail on running processes
and configuration parameters. This information is purely for diagnostic purposes,
and therefore isn’t needed for normal operation. It is not possible to copy user data
here.
