Creating policy rules using GUI
For each file system, you can create policy rules. The file system policy, which may consist of multiple rules, is run at the designated time.
Note:
To create a policy rule, a secondary or cloud tier must already exist on the file system.
To configure a policy schedule
- Navigate to File systems. Click on the name of the file system. Select the Storage tab. In the Configured policy rules section, click on the + icon.
- In the Add policy form, enter all the required details. Choose Data movement if you want to move data. Choose Data deletion if you want to delete data. Enter a name for the new policy.
Enter the schedule frequency. Specify the hours and minutes that represent the time of day according to a 24-hour clock.
- Click Add to add the new policy.
- You can see the View details panel for the status of the task. The newly created policy is listed in the Configured policy rules section.
