● Storage view - Enabled or disabled for all existing storage views. A storage view created after CAW is enabled/disabled at
the storage view level inherits the system default setting. Dell EMC recommends maintaining uniform CAW setting on all
storage views. If CAW must be disabled for a given storage view, it must be disabled for all existing and future storage
views. To ensure that future storage views to reflect the new setting, change the system default (described below).
● System default - Enabled or disabled as a system default. A storage view created after CAW is enabled/disabled at the
system default level inherits the system default setting. If the system default is enabled, CAW support for the new storage
view is also enabled.
Display CAW setting
Use the ls command in /clusters/cluster/exports/storage-views context to display whether CAW is enabled at
the storage view level. For example:
VPlexcli:/> ll /clusters/cluster-2/exports/storage-views/*
/clusters/cluster-2/exports/storage-views/FE-Logout-test:
Name Value
------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------
caw-enabled false
.
.
.
/clusters/cluster-2/exports/storage-views/default_quirk_view:
Name Value
------------------------ ------------------------------------------
caw-enabled false
.
.
.
Use the ls command in /clusters/cluster context to display the CAW system default setting:
VPlexcli:/> ls /clusters/cluster-1
/clusters/cluster-1:
Attributes:
Name Value
---------------------- --------------------------------------------
allow-auto-join true
auto-expel-count 0
auto-expel-period 0
auto-join-delay 0
cluster-id 1
connected true
default-cache-mode synchronous
default-caw-template true
.
.
.
Enable/disable CAW for a storage view
Use the set command in /clusters/cluster/exports/storage-views/storage-view context to enable or disable
CAW for the storage view.
To enable CAW for a storage view:
VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1/exports/storage-views/recoverpoint_vols> set caw-enabled
true
To disable CAW for a storage view:
VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1/exports/storage-views/recoverpoint_vols> set caw-enabled
false
