To modify a storage group via the user interface, complete the following steps
|
NOTE: Quotas define the limit for physical capacity usage. Once reached, data ingests are not allowed until space is recovered through savepoint expiration and cleaner operations. |
|
NOTE: For more information about recommended guidelines for setting up encryption, see the topic, Configuring and Using Encryption at Rest. |
|
NOTE: Due to export regulations, the encryption at rest feature is not available in certain markets, and, therefore, may not be available in your locale. |
To modify a storage group via the CLI, complete the following steps
storage_group --show [--name <name>] [--verbose] storage_group --update --name <name> [--compression_mode <fast|best>] [--quota <Quota value in GiB or TiB>] storage_group --encryption --name <name> [--set <ON | OFF>] [--mode <static|internal> <--interval <7 days to 70 years>] storage_group --setpassphrase --name <name>
Before you can delete a storage group, you must first delete the containers in the storage group. See Deleting a container for more information.
To delete a storage group, complete the following steps.
|
NOTE: You cannot delete the DefaultGroup storage group. |
Deleting a storage group from the CLI
storage_group --delete --name <name>
Before configuring a performance tier, ensure that you have reviewed the requirements and limitations below.
Add mount location to /etc/fastab using the noatime and drsync mount options
echo '<storage path> /perf01 xfs defaults,noatime,dirsync 0 0' >> /etc/fstab
Adding a performance tier can be accomplished through the QoreStor UI or via the performance_tier command in the QoreStor CLI. Refer to the QoreStor Command Line Reference Guide for more information on the performance_tier command.
To add a performance tier
Before adding a performance tier, ensure that the storage is mounted to the QoreStor server as an XFS filesystem. Refer to Guidelines for configuring additional storage for additional guidelines and requirements.
When a performance tier is added, QoreStor will also create the corresponding storage group "PerformanceTier" mapped to the performance tier storage.
|
NOTE: QoreStor services will be restarted. You will need to log into the UI once the restart is complete. |
To add a performance tier, complete the following steps.
performance_tier --add --path <enclosure filesystem dir> [--compression_mode <fast|best>] [--quota <Quota value in GiB or TiB>}
Refer to the QoreStor Command LIne Reference Guide for more information
performance_tier --encryption [--set <ON | OFF>] [--mode <static|internal> <--interval <7 days to 70 years>]
For more information, refer to the QoreStor Command Line Reference Guide.

NOTE: Due to export regulations, the encryption at rest feature is not available in certain markets, and, therefore, may not be available in your locale. For more information about recommended guidelines for encryption, see Understanding Encryption at Rest |
|
NOTE: It is mandatory to define a passphrase to enable encryption. If the passphrase is compromised or lost, the administrator should change it immediately so that the content encryption keys do not become vulnerable. |
|
NOTE: After encryption is enabled, all of the data that is backed up is encrypted and is kept encrypted until it is expired and cleaned by the system cleaner. Note that encryption is an irreversible process. |
