New-File Placement When All Shares Reach the Free Space
Threshold
If all shares fill up to their maintain-free-space measures, the share farm distributes
each new file to the same share as its parent directory.
Disabling the Free-Space Threshold
You can allow the balance rule to continue placing new files on shares that are close
to filling up. Use the
no form of the maintain-free-space command to disable the
maintaining free space feature.
no maintain-free-space
For example:
prtlndA1k(gbl)# namespace nemed
prtlndA1k(gbl-ns[nemed])# volume /acctShdw
prtlndA1k(gbl-ns-vol[nemed~/acctShdw])# share-farm farm1
prtlndA1k(gbl-ns-vol-sfarm[nemed~/acctShdw~farm1])# no maintain-free-space
prtlndA1k(gbl-ns-vol-sfarm[nemed~/acctShdw~farm1])# ...
Constraining New Files
Some installations may prefer to retain files on the same back-end shares as their
parent directories, at least until it is determined that the files must be auto-migrated to
free up space on the share. From gbl-ns-vol-sfarm mode, you can use the
constrain-files command to keep any new file in the same share as its parent directory:
constrain-files
This is the opposite of the new-file
balance policy described above; if you constrain
new files, you cancel the effects of any
balance command that is in force.
For example:
bstnA6k(gbl)# namespace ns2
bstnA6k(gbl-ns[ns2])# volume /usr
bstnA6k(gbl-ns-vol[ns2~/usr])# share-farm fm4
