storage_group --add --name <name> [--compression_mode <fast|best>]

Description

Adds a new storage group to the DR Series system with the name specified by the --name command option.

NOTE: When adding a name, valid values for the name are (a-z, A-Z, 0–9, ‘_’, and ‘_’)

You can also set the compression mode for the storage group as fast or best, described as follows:

  • Fast — Results in shorter backup time, but with less space savings.

  • Best — Provides the highest space savings, but with a longer backup time.

Syntax

storage_group --add --name StorageGroup_1 --compression_mode best

Result

Storage Group "StorageGroup_1" created successfully.

storage_group --update --name <name> [--compression_mode <fast|best>]

Description

Allows you to modify the compression mode for the specified storage group. The compression mode for the storage group can be set as fast or best, described as follows:

  • Fast — Results in shorter backup time, but with less space savings.
  • Best — Provides the highest space savings, but with a longer backup time.

Syntax

storage_group --update --name StorageGroup_1 --compression_mode fast

Result

Storage Group "StorageGroup_1" updated successfully.

storage_group --encryption --name <name> [--set <ON | OFF>] [--mode <static|internal> <--interval <7 days to 70 years>]

Description

Allows you to set the encryption level for a specified storage group on the DR Series system. You turn encryption on or off by using the --set ON or --set OFF command options. The --mode option sets the mode of key lifecycle management as one of the following:

  • static—A global, fixed key is used to encrypt all data.
  • internal—Content encryption keys are generated and rotated on a specified period of days.

If you select Internal as the mode of key management, you need to set the --interval option, which specifies the number of days for key rotation when a new key is to be generated.

NOTE: In Internal mode there is a maximum limit of 1023 keys. The key rotation period is set to 30 days by default when the passphrase is set and/or encryption is turned on. You can later change the key rotation period from 7 days to 70 years for internal mode.

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.

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.

Syntax

storage_group --encryption --name StorageGroup_1 --set ON --mode internal --interval 120

Result

Storage Group "StorageGroup_1" updated successfully.

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 StorageGroup_1

Result

Storage Group "StorageGroup_1" updated successfully.
Passphrase updated successfully.
