Manage filesystems
Filesystem management is an integral part of the successful running and performance of the WEKA system and of overall data lifecycle management.
Managing filesystems in the WEKA system involves overseeing entities that function like conventional on-disk filesystems but distribute data across all servers in the cluster. These filesystems are not tied to specific physical objects and act as root directories with space limitations.
The WEKA system can support up to 1024 filesystems. Effective management ensures optimal resource allocation and performance, including tasks such as creating new filesystems, resizing existing ones, and configuring features like thin provisioning and data reduction.
