Disk Device Labeler 4
The Disk Device Labeler utility lets you configure StorNext File System
storage area network (SAN) disks. Use the Disk Device Labeler to create a
list of disk labels, associated device names, and (optional) the sectors to
use.
The file system uses the volume labels to determine which disk drives to
use. The label name written to a disk device must match the disk name
specified in the Server Configuration utility. For more information, see
Server Configuration on page 97.
Number of Transfer
Buffers
Type the number of transfer buffers used by
the distributed LAN server. (Default: 16)
Transfer Buffer Size
(kb)
Type the transfer buffer size (in KB) used by
the distributed LAN server. A larger buffer
may increase performance for larger files.
(Default: 256)
TCP Window Size (kb)
Type the TCP window size (in KB) used by
the distributed LAN server. (Default: 64)
Max Daemon Threads
Type the maximum number of daemon
threads used by the distributed LAN server.
(Default: 8)
Server Interfaces
Select the server interface (network interface
card) to use when connecting to distributed
LAN clients. If a network interface has more
than one address configured, you must select
one of the addresses to use for distributed
LAN connections. (For best performance, do
not choose the network used for metadata.)
Note: Run the Disk Device Labeler on a system that has visibility to
all disk devices on the SAN.
