pvfs2-mkspace - Man Page

pvfs2-mkspace [-adDhvV] [-c name] [-i id] [-r handle] [-M range] [-N range] [--data-space path] [--meta-space path] directory

The pvfs2-mkspace utility creates an OrangeFS volume with a single collection or adds a new collection to an existing storage space.  It should be used after changing the storage configuration of a server which has already been initialized.

The options are as follows:

-a

Add a collection instead of creating a new storage space.

-d

Use all default options.  The default options can be seen with -h.

-D

Remove (permanently) the storage space.

-h

Display synopsis.

-v

Print version number and exit.

-V

Display verbose messages.

-c

Use name as the collection name.

-i

Use id as file system ID.

-r

Use handle as the root handle.

-M

Use range as the metadata handle range.

-N

Use range as the data handle range.

--data-space

Use path as the path to the data space.

--meta-space

Use path as the path to the metadata space.

PVFS2_DEBUGFILE

If set to the path of a local file, redirect debug output to it.

PVFS2_DEBUGMASK

Set the OrangeFS debug mask.  Possible masks are documented in pvfs2-set-debugmask(1).
