storage_group --delete --name <name>
Managing QoreStor > Storage Group commands > Storage Group Command Usage > storage_group --delete --name <name>
Description
Deletes the specified storage group from the QoreStor.
|
|
NOTE: Before a storage group can be deleted, all of the containers inside the storage group must first be deleted. |
Syntax
storage_group --delete --name <name>
Where
--name Name of storage_group.
Result
Storage Group "StorageGroup_1" has been deleted.
storage_group --setpassphrase --name <name>
Managing QoreStor > Storage Group commands > Storage Group Command Usage > storage_group --setpassphrase --name <name>
Description
Sets the passphrase for the specified storage group to be used to encrypt content encryption keys. (The passphrase string can take up to 255 characters. And, alphanumeric and special characters can be entered as part of the passphrase string.) This command will prompt you to enter and confirm a passphrase. This command also requires a filesystem server restart.
|
|
NOTE: It is mandatory to define a passphrase to enable encryption for a storage group. If the passphrase is compromised or lost, the administrator should change it immediately so that the content encryption keys do not become vulnerable. |
Syntax
storage_group --setpassphrase --name <name>
Where
--name Storage group name
Result
Storage Group "StorageGroup_1" updated successfully. Passphrase updated successfully.
storage_group --help
Description
Displays the list of all storage_group-related options that can be used as a reference when using the QoreStor CLI.
Syntax
