Joining Filesets
You can join two or more filesets in a union fileset. A union fileset contains all the
files in all of its source filesets. A file that is common to two or more of the source
filesets is only included once in the resulting union. From gbl mode, use the
policy-union-fileset command to create a union fileset:
policy-union-fileset name
where name (1-64 characters) is a required name that you assign to the fileset.
The CLI prompts for confirmation before creating a new fileset; enter yes to continue.
This puts you into gbl-ns-vol-fs-union mode, where you must identify two or more
source filesets to include in the union.
For example, the following command sequence creates an empty union fileset:
bstnA6k(gbl)# policy-union-fileset bulky
This will create a new policy object.
Create object 'bulky'? [yes/no] yes
bstnA6k(gbl-ns-vol-fs-union[bulky])# ...
Identifying a Source Fileset
The final step in configuring a union fileset is to identify two or more source filesets.
You can include as many source filesets as desired, but you must have at least two for
the union to be meaningful. From gbl-ns-vol-fs-union mode, use the
from fileset
command to include a source fileset:
from fileset fileset-name
where fileset-name (1-64 characters) identifies the source fileset.
For example, the following command set includes three source filesets for the “bulky”
union:
bstnA6k(gbl)# policy-union-fileset bulky
bstnA6k(gbl-ns-vol-fs-union[bulky])# from fileset fm_pdf
bstnA6k(gbl-ns-vol-fs-union[bulky])# from fileset veryLarge
