       fsapadm - VxFS allocation policy administration utility

SYNOPSIS

       metadata_policy_name

       flags] filename data_policy_name metadata_policy_name

       flags] order] mount_point policy_name volname...

DESCRIPTION

       The  utility performs administrative tasks, such as assigning, defining, deleting, and enforcing allocation policies in a specified VERITAS
       File System.

       policy_name specifies the name of an allocation policy.	The maximum length of an allocation policy name is 64 characters.

       mount_point specifies the directory on which the file system is mounted.

   Keywords
       Assigns allocation policies to a Storage Checkpoint.

       Assigns allocation policies to an individual file.
		      Possible values for flags are:
		      Set this flag on a directory and subsequently the files created in the directory will inherit the allocation policies.

       Assigns the default allocation policies for an entire file system.

       Defines a new allocation policy
		      or changes an existing allocation policy named policy_name at the specified mount point.	In the latter case, the previously
		      specified volumes are replaced by the newly specified volumes.

		      Possible values for order are:
		      Allocations are done from the volume in the order in which they are given in the allocation policy.

		      Allocations are done from the volume specified in the allocation policy
			     that has the most free blocks.

		      Allocations are done from a volume that is selected in a round-robin
			     fashion from those specified in the allocation policy.

		      The default order is

		      Possible values for flags are:
		      Allows non-privileged users to be able to assign the policy using the keyword.  By default, only privileged users can assign
		      policies.

       Deletes an allocation policy.

       Enforces the allocation policies assigned to an individual file by
		      moving any data and metadata that does not fulfill its assigned allocation policy  into  new  blocks  that  do  fulfill  its
		      assigned allocation policy.

       Displays the definitions of all allocation policies
		      defined in a file system.

       Displays the definition of an allocation policy.

       Displays the allocation policies assigned to an entire file system.

       Displays the allocation policies assigned to a Storage Checkpoint.

       Displays the allocation policies assigned to an individual file.

       The following command defines an allocation policy named using volumes and with order in the file system mounted at

       The following command deletes the allocation policy named from the file system mounted at

       The following command displays the definition of the allocation policy named in the file system mounted at

       The  following command assigns the allocation policies named and as the default policies for data and metadata, respectively, for all files
       in the file system mounted at

       The following command assigns the allocation policy named as the default policy for data and metadata, respectively, for the Storage Check-
       point in the file system mounted at

       The following command assigns the allocation policy named for data and metadata, respectively, to the file

       The following command displays the allocation policies assigned as the defaults for all files in the file system mounted at

       The following command displays the allocation policies assigned to the Storage Checkpoint in the file system mounted at

       The following command displays the allocation policies assigned to the file in the file system mounted at

       The  following  command	enforces the allocation policies assigned to the file in the file system mounted at (that is, the existing alloca-
       tions are moved to match the policies, if required):
