Designates a drive group to store the persistence data that is managed by the Controller.

SYNOPSIS

drive_group ‑setPersistence 
   ‑driveGroup drive‑group‑id‑or‑fqn

   [{‑sessionKey | ‑u admin‑user ‑oracleFS oracle‑fs‑system}]
   [{‑outputformat | ‑o} { text | xml }]
   [{‑timeout timeout‑in‑seconds | ‑verify | ‑usage | ‑example | ‑help}] 

DESCRIPTION

The Oracle FS System uses a persistence database to store the following types of system information in a VLUN that is reserved for system use:
  • Global system settings

  • Administrator account definitions

  • NAS configuration information

  • LUN mappings

Note: The Oracle FS System stores the persistence database on one of the drive groups that you specify. In contrast, the Oracle FS System stores the Configuration on Disk (COD) on all drive groups in the Oracle FS System. The COD includes the following types of information:
  • The configuration of all data volumes and their clones.

  • The MARKS database that manages the Backend SAS Interconnect topology

  • The hardware manifest

Administrators with primary administrator, admin1, admin2, monitor, or support roles are authorized to run this command.

OPTIONS

driveGroup

Specifies the fully qualified name (FQN) or the unique identifier (ID) of the drive group. When a Drive Enclosure is added to the Oracle FS System, the system automatically allocates the storage by generating one or more drive groups. The drive_group ‑list command displays the names of all drive groups that are defined on the Oracle FS System. The FQN consists of the name that the system generates preceded by a forward slash (/) character.

EXAMPLE

Task

Specify a drive group to hold the persistence database.

Parameters
  • The fully qualified name (FQN) of the drive group: /⁠⁠ENCLOSURE01-DG001

$ fscli drive_group ‑setPersistence ‑driveGroup /⁠ENCLOSURE01‑DG001
