Adding an External Filer
Ignoring a Directory
6-4 CLI Storage-Management Guide
• Network Appliance: .snapshot, ~snapshot
• BlueArc: .snapshot, ~snapshot
For example, the following command sequence ignores several directories in the
external filer, “nasE1:”
bstnA6k(gbl)# external-filer nasE1
bstnA6k(gbl-ext-filer[nasE1])# ignore-directory .etc
bstnA6k(gbl-ext-filer[nasE1])# ignore-directory lost+found
bstnA6k(gbl-ext-filer[nasE1])# ignore-directory .ckpt*
Wildcard matches are only made in the root directory of a share.
Is this the intended behavior? [yes/no] yes
bstnA6k(gbl-ext-filer[nasE1])# ...
Re-Instating a Directory
For cases where you want to start using a previously-ignored directory, use the no
ignore-directory
command from gbl-ext-filer mode:
no ignore-directory directory
where directory (1-256 characters) is the directory to stop ignoring.
For example, the following command sequence to re-instate the “.back” directory for
the external filer, “das1:”
bstnA6k(gbl)# external-filer das1
bstnA6k(gbl-ext-filer[das1])# no ignore-directory .back
bstnA6k(gbl-ext-filer[das1])# ...
Ignore only special, virtual directories designed for filer backups, or directories that only
appear in the share’s root. If you ignore a standard directory below the root, a client
cannot delete the directory’s parent.
