Editing a file system

Edit online

You can edit the file system to set or change items such as the name and whether it uses SSL to communicate with the vault.

Procedure

  1. Edit the Name (50 characters max) for this pool.
    The name cannot be blank and must be unique concerning other file systems. Select whether SSL is to be used to communicate with the Vault. (Default = Enabled). SSL uses encrypted communication sessions between the File Accesser devices and Accesser devices in the Cloud Object Storage system.
  2. Click Update or Cancel to exit.
    Note: Extra naming constraints.
    • The first character must not be a number.
    • The entire name must be ASCII printable (character codes 32-127).
    • The name must be unique concerning other file systems in the Cloud Object Storage System.
    Note: Selecting SSL might impact File Accesser® Device performance. When a File Accesser® Device is deployed in a secured environment, disabling SSL generally improves overall performance. When SSL is disabled, the user MUST enable Anonymous Access on the Vault of the same name as the newly created file system.
    Settled Writes
    Settled Writes provides a layer of protection for active archives. After files are written to a file system with Settled Writes enabled, the files will become Read-Only after a user specified settle period. After the settle period passes, the files can no longer be modified by any user, regardless of the files permissions, preventing any accidental modification or deletion of content. Only the override user (UID) or group (GID) specification, if set, can modify content after the settle period passes for files that are written to the file system.
  3. Enter the UID Override.
    Valid values are any positive integer and zero. A "Not Defined" value means that users in the GID Override group can bypass the settled writes functions. UID Override is a UID mapped to the user that can bypass the settled writes functions.
  4. Enter the GID Override.
    Valid values are any positive integer and zero. A "Not Defined" value means a user that matches the UID Override can bypass the settled writes functions. GID Override is a GID mapped to the set of users that can bypass the settled writes functions.
    Note: If this feature is enabled, a user with a matching UID or a matching GID is always able to write/delete files, including settled writes.
