Enabling or disabling Flexible Storage Sharing on existing shared disk groups

The Management Server console lets you enable or disable Flexible Storage Sharing (FSS) on existing shared disk groups in a Cluster Volume Manager (CVM) cluster that supports FSS

You can also enable FSS when you create a new disk group in a CVM cluster that supports FSS.

See Creating disk groups.

To perform this task, your user group must be assigned the Admin role on the current host, if in the host context, or on the master node of the cluster, if in the cluster context, or the Server perspective. The permission on the host may be explicitly assigned or inherited from a parent Organization.

To enable or disable FSS on an existing shared disk group

  1. In the Management Server console, go to the Server perspective and expand Manage in the left pane.
  2. Expand Clusters and click the Shared Disk Groups tab.

    You can also perform this operation from a selected disk group in a host context.

  3. Right-click the disk group and select Set/Unset FSS.

    The current state of FSS (on or off) is displayed.

  4. Confirm that you want to set FSS on or off for the disk group.
