• Stripe group field: The number of stripe groups for the file
system. Selecting a value greater than 1 enables customization to
optimize performance and use StorNext features such as
dedicated Metadata, Journal and User Data stripe groups.
10 When a message reminds you to select more than one stripe group if
you want an alternate configuration other than the one that provides
journal, metadata, and user date, click OK to continue. The
Customize Stripe Group screen appears.
Note: If the file system you are adding will be used for
deduplication-enabled storage disks, you must accept the
default value of 16385 bytes.
Note: Quantum recommends that metadata and journals be on a
stripe group separate from data. (In some cases, metadata
and journals should be on separate stripe groups as well.)
