Hi All,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I haven’t been able to find this explicitly documented, so I’m just wanting to confirm that the behavior that I’m expecting is what GPFS is going to do in this scenario…</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I have a filesystem with data replication set to two. I’m creating a capacity type pool for it right now which will be used to migrate old files to. I only want to use replication of one on the capacity pool.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">My policy file has two rules, one to move files with an atime > 30 days to the capacity pool, to which I’ve included “REPLICATE(1)”. The other rule is to move files from the capacity pool back to the system pool if the atime < 14 days. Since
data replication is set to two, I am thinking that I do not need to explicitly have a “REPLICATE(2)” as part of that rule … is that correct? I.e., I’m wanting to make sure that a file moved to the capacity pool which therefore has its’ replication set to
one doesn’t keep that same setting even if moved back out of the capacity pool.</div>

<div class="">Thanks…</div>
