1 General CLI information Executing X9000 Software commands The commands in “X9000 File Serving Software commands” (page 6) must be executed on the management console host. Root privileges are required to run these commands. The commands in “Commands for Linux X9000 clients and file serving nodes” (page 142) can be executed on file serving nodes and/or Linux X9000 clients. Any user can run these commands. All commands are run from the working directory /usr/local/ibrix/bin. Command syntax Names.
2 X9000 File Serving Software commands This chapter lists commands used to configure and manage X9000 File Serving Software. The commands must be run on the management console host. ibrix_activedirectory Configures and lists Active Directory settings. Description Active Directory settings must be configured on the management console to allow Windows X9000 clients to query the Active Directory server when reading or writing on a file serving node.
Option Description -W WIN_USER_NAME Sets the “Unknown” Windows user, who takes ownership of files when a mapping cannot be resolved. -d DOMAIN_NAME Identifies a fully qualified domain name. -i DOMAIN_CONTROLLER_IP The domain controller IP address. -l Displays Active Directory settings on this management console. -p PROXY_PASSWORD Sets the Active Directory proxy password. -u PROXY_USER Sets the Active Directory proxy user name, specified in the format "domainname\username".
ibrix_auth Configures authentication for CIFS, FTP, and HTTP Description File serving nodes that will be hosting CIFS, FTP, or HTTP shares must be configured to authenticate with either local users and groups or your Active Directory domain.
Option Description -h HOSTLIST A list of file serving nodes. -n DOMAIN_NAME Specifies the domain name for Active Directory authentication. -i Displays current information about authentication. -t Modifies the authentication settings. -? Shows the usage for this command.
ibrix_autoconnect Manages entries in the Autoconnect table. Description An X9000 Software autoconnection enables NFS clients to mount file systems automatically whenever they are accessed. At the same time, Autoconnect manages how these connections are distributed among file serving nodes. Autoconnect uses the Linux automount daemon; working familiarity with automount is recommended.
ibrix_caseinsensitive Manages case insensitivity on a file system or directory. Description By default, X9000 file systems and directories follow POSIX semantics and file names are case-sensitive for Linux/NFS users. (File names are always case-insensitive for Windows clients.) If you prefer to use Windows semantics for Linux/NFS users, you can make a file system or subdirectory case-insensitive. Doing this prevents a Linux/NFS user from creating two files that differ only in case (such as foo and FOO).
ibrix_certificate Manages SSL certificates. Description Servers accepting FTPS and HTTPS connections typically provide an SSL certificate that verifies the identity and owner of the web site being accessed. You can add your existing certificates to the cluster, enabling file serving nodes to present the appropriate certificate to FTPS and HTTPS clients. X9000 Software supports PEM certificates. When you add an SSL certificate file to the cluster, the file must contain both the certificate contents (the .
Option Description -i Shows information about a certificate. -p CERTPATH Specifies the location of the certificate file. -? Shows the usage for this command. NOTE: The -m and -S SETTINGLIST options shown in the command usage message are not currently supported.
ibrix_cifs Manages CIFS shares. NOTE: Be sure to use the ibrix_cifs command located in /bin. The ibrix_cifs command located in /usr/local/bin/init is used internally by X9000 Software and should not be run directly. Description CIFS is the file-sharing protocol used in Windows-based networks. Use the ibrix_cifs command to configure CIFS shares. The maximum number of shares is 3000. Access-based enumeration can be applied to a CIFS share.
Option Description -d Deletes a CIFS share. –f FSNAME A file system. -h HOSTLIST One or more file serving nodes. -i Displays information about CIFS shares. -m Modifies a share. -p SHAREPATH The path to a shared directory. -s SHARENAME The name of a shared directory. -? Shows the usage for this command.
ibrix_cifsconfig Configures global settings for CIFS. Description The ibrix_cifsconfig command configures global settings for CIFS operations. The settings apply to all CIFS shares configured in the cluster. Synopsis Configure CIFS settings: ibrix_cifsconfig -t [-S SETTINGLIST] [-h HOSTLIST] For the -S SETTINGLIST option, enclose the list of settings in quotation marks, and use commas to separate the settings.

ibrix_client Performs management and control procedures for X9000 clients. Description ibrix_client enables the following X9000 client procedures: • Registers a Linux X9000 client with a management console. Clients that are to communicate with multiple management consoles must be registered on each console. (To register a Windows X9000 client, use the Windows X9000 client GUI.) • Sets a preferred user interface for an X9000 client. (To prefer a user interface for a hostgroup, use ibrix_hostgroup.
Options Option Description -A Assigns a preferred NIC. -D DESTSERVER Deletes the network interface preference established between the source client and the destination server. -a Adds an X9000 client. -d Deletes a client from the configuration database. -e IPADDRESS Specifies the IP address for a client. -h CLIENTLIST One or more clients (specify as CLIENT1,CLIENT2,CLIENT3,...). -i Provides detailed information for one or more clients. -l Lists clients.
ibrix_cluster Registers a remote cluster for remote replication. Description The source and target clusters of a remote replication configuration must be registered with each other before remote replication tasks can be created. Use ibrix_cluster -r on the target cluster to register the source cluster before creating a remote replication export with ibrix_crr_export. Use ibrix_cluster -r on the source cluster to register the target cluster before starting a remote replication task with ibrix_crr.
ibrix_clusterconfig Sets or displays cluster configuration parameters. Description Configures cluster configuration settings such as the default gateway and time zone. The settings are used during cluster setup and can also be used to update the configuration of existing systems. Synopsis Show cluster-wide configuration parameters: ibrix_clusterconfig -i -P Set cluster configuration parameters: ibrix_clusterconfig -c -P PARAM1=VALUE1[,...
ibrix_clusterconfig -d -L DEV -I ADDRESS Show OS parameters and tunings: ibrix_clusterconfig -i -O Create or update an OS parameter: ibrix_clusterconfig -c -O KEY=VALUE,[...KEY=VALUE] Delete/reset an OS parameter: ibrix_clusterconfig -d -O KEY List OS parameters and defaults: ibrix_clusterconfig -Q Synchronize parameters on file serving nodes: ibrix_clusterconfig -s [-P] [-O] [-o keyword] [-h HOSTLIST] Use -P to synchronize cluster parameters such as DNS and NTP. Use -O to synchronize OS tunings.
ibrix_collect Collects information from X9000 cluster nodes for diagnosis by HP Support. Description This command collects relevant information from X9000 systems for diagnosis. You can invoke the collection manually using ibrix_collect or the GUI, or it can be invoked automatically by a system crash. When you invoke the collection manually, you can specify a name for the collection. A collected data set includes logs and output from specific operating system and X9000 commands.
Delete all data collection sets: ibrix_collect -F Show details for the specified data collection: ibrix_collect -v -n NAME The details include the description, state, initiator, and time of invocation. List the details of all data collections: ibrix_collect -l For each collection, the output reports the collection name, description, state, time of invocation, and initiator. List the ibrix_collect configuration: ibrix_collect -i Options 24 Option Description -C options Configures ibrix_collect.
ibrix_crr Starts and stops the replication process and monitors the state of replication activity. Description The Continuous Remote Replication service (CRR) provides a transparent method to replicate changes in a source file system on one cluster to a target file system on either the same cluster or a second cluster. The remote replication service has two modes: continuous and run-once. For detailed information about these modes, see the HP X9000 File Serving Software File System User Guide.
Omit the -o option to start a continuous replication task. A continuous replication task does an initial full synchronization and then continues to replicate any new changes made on the source. Continuous replication tasks continue to run until manually stopped by the user. Start an intra-cluster remote replication task: ibrix_crr -s -f SRC_FSNAME [-o [-S SRCDIR]] -F TGT_FSNAME [-P TGTDIR] The command starts a continuous or run-once intra-cluster replication task for file system SRC_FSNAME.
Options Option Description -C TGT_CLUSTERNAME The remote cluster name. -C SRC_CLUSTERNAME The source cluster name. When a command is run from the target cluster, this argument is required. –F TGT_FSNAME The target file system. -P TGTDIR An optional target directory. -R Bypasses retention compatibility checks. -S SRC_DIR Identifies the source directory where replication starts. This option is valid only when used with the -o option, where SRC_DIR specifies a particular directory.
ibrix_crr_export Configures a target export for continuous remote replication (CRR). Description This command exports a target file system and directory for remote replication. Before remote replication can take place, you must create a mapping between the source cluster and the target file system that receives the replicated data. This mapping ensures that only the specified source cluster can write to the target export (exported file system and directory).
ibrix_crr_nic Identifies server assignments for the servers and corresponding NICs that handle replication requests. Description If you are replicating a file system to a remote cluster, you can use ibrix_crr_nic on the target cluster to select or modify the servers that handle replication requests and the corresponding NICs that carry replication traffic in the cluster. The default server assignments are: • Use all servers that have the file system mounted. • Use the cluster NIC on each host.
Options Option Description -D Restores the default server assignments (automatically use all servers and the cluster network interface on each server). -P ASSIGNMENT_ID1 [,...,ASSIGNMENT_IDn] Server assignment ID. -a Creates a server assignment. A previous server assignment for the same export must not exist, or must be removed before a new server assignment is created. —f FSNAME An exported file system. -h HOSTLIST The servers to use for remote replication.
ibrix_datavalidation Performs a data validation scan of a file system or subdirectory configured for data retention Description To ensure that WORM and retained files remain unchanged, it is important to run a data validation scan periodically.
ibrix_dbck Ensures that information maps on hosts are consistent with the configuration database. NOTE: ibrix_dbck should be used only under the direction of HP Support. Description Hosts (file serving nodes and X9000 clients) maintain information about a file system based on information that they obtain from the configuration database. If a host’s information about a file system becomes outdated, the host cannot access the file system or communicate with other hosts about the file system.
ibrix_edquota Sets and manages file system quotas for users, groups, and directory trees. Description The ibrix_edquota command sets, lists, and deletes storage quotas for users or groups on a specific file system. It also sets directory tree quotas, which limit the amount of storage and the number of files that can be created on a file system located at a specific directory tree. By default, quotas are not set. The recommended order for handling quotas is as follows: 1.
-p "/fs48/data/'QUOTA 4'" NOTE: When ibrix_edquota is used to create a directory tree, the system also runs ibrix_onlinequotacheck command in DTREE_CREATE mode. If you are creating multiple directory tree quotas, you can import the quotas from a file. The system then uses batch processing to create the quotas. If you add the quotas individually, you will need to wait for ibrix_onlinequotacheck to finish after entering each ibrix_edquota command.
Options Option Description -D Deletes user, group, or directory tree limits. -G Specifies all groups with quota settings. -I SOFT_FILES Sets the soft limit on the number of files. -K INODES_GRACE_TIME Specifies the number of Hours/Days/Weeks/Months to set as the grace period for the inode limit (for example, 10H/1D/2W/2M). -M SOFT_MEGABYTES Sets the soft limit on the megabyte allocation. –T All directory trees. -U Specifies all users with quota settings.
ibrix_event Sets up email and SNMP notifications of cluster events, displays event messages, and removes event messages from the events table. Description Use ibrix_event to set up two types of event notifications: • Email notification, which sends to one or more addresses an email containing the event, the originating server, the severity level, a timestamp, an autogenerated number, and the management console name. • SNMP notification, which sends an SNMP trap to one or more trapsinks.
Before sending a test message to the email address, notifications must be turned on. If the address is valid, the command signals success and sends an email containing the settings to the recipient. If the address is not valid, the command returns an address failed exception. Remove events from the events table: ibrix_event -p [-o DAYS_COUNT] Events are removed starting with the oldest events. The default is to remove the oldest seven days of messages.
Option Description -t SUBJECT Specifies an email subject string that is prefixed to the automatically generated email Subject line. -u Sends a test email. -v {ALERT|WARN|INFO} An event level. -y EMAIL | SNMP Specifies an event notification type. The valid values are EMAIL (the default) and SNMP. -? Shows the usage for this command. See also ibrix_snmptrap “Setting up email notification of cluster events” and “Setting up SNMP notifications” in the administration guide for your system.
ibrix_exportfs Maintains the list of NFS-exported file systems and specifies file-system access for X9000 clients. Description ibrix_exportfs makes local directories available for NFS clients to mount. The management console manages the table of exported file systems and distributes the information to local /etc/ exports files. All entries are automatically re-exported to NFS clients and, optionally, to the file serving node standbys. A file system must be mounted before it can be exported.
ibrix_exportfs -U -f FSNAME -p CLIENT1:PATHNAME1,CLIENT2:PATHNAME2,.. Options Option Description -U Unexports the named file system. -b Excludes the file serving node standby from the export. -c Specifies file-system access for an X9000 client. -f FSNAME A file system. -h HOSTNAME or HOSTLIST A file serving node or a list of file serving nodes exporting a file system. -l Lists all NFS export entries, or lists entries on a named host. -o “OPTIONS ” Linux exportfs options.
ibrix_fm Controls an agile management console configuration. Description Typically, the management console is installed on all file serving nodes when the cluster is installed. The management console is active on one node and passive on the other nodes. This is called an agile management console configuration. An agile management console can be in one of the following modes: • active. In this mode, the management console controls console operations.
ibrix_fm -f Options 42 Option Description -A With the exception of the local node running the active management console, moves all instances of the management console to the specified mode. -B Backs up the management console configuration. -I Specifies an IP address. -R Registers a management console. -a Specifies the IP address of the cluster virtual interface.
ibrix_fm_tune Sets or resets configuration tuning parameters on the management console. Description CAUTION: console.

ibrix_fs Creates, extends, and manages file systems. Description ibrix_fs is used to: • Create a file system from physical or logical volumes. • List information about file systems (including snapshot file systems). • Extend a file system by adding new segments. • Delete a file system. • Migrate segments to another file serving node. • Enable or disable export control on a file system. • Disable 32-bit mode on a file system. • Assign or unassign a standby server.
Create a file system from the specified physical volumes in one step: ibrix_fs -c -f FSNAME -p PVLIST [-a] [-q] [-o OPTION1=VALUE1,OPTION2=VALUE2,...] [-t TIERNAME] The file system is created from the physical volumes in PVLIST. One volume group is created per physical volume. Segments are then created from the volume groups and assigned to file serving nodes in a round-robin manner.
View information about file systems Use the following commands to display details about the file systems configured on the cluster. Display file system information: ibrix_fs -i [-f FSLIST] [-x] The output includes either all file systems or only the file systems in FSLIST, as well as their component segments. Include -x to omit segment details.
The segments in LVLIST on file system FSNAME are migrated to the new host. To force the migration, include -M. To skip the source host update during the migration, include -F. To skip host health checks, include -N. Migrate ownership of segments from one host to another and update the source host: ibrix_fs -m -f FSNAME -h HOSTNAME1,HOSTNAME2 [-M] [-F] [-N] The segments owned by HOSTNAME1 are migrated to HOSTNAME2. To force the migration, include -M.
The command assigns HOSTNAME as the standby for the segments in LVLIST on file system FSNAME. To identify a standby server for all segments on a file serving node, use the following command, where HOSTNAME2 is the standby for HOSTNAME1. /bin/ibrix_server -b -h HOSTNAME1,HOSTNAME2 Delete the standby assignment for the specified segments: ibrix_fs -b -U -f FSNAME -s LVLIST The command removes the standby assignment for the segments in LVLIST on file system FSNAME.
Option Description -q Enables quotas on a file system. -s LVLIST A list of one or more logical volume (segment) names, expressed as a comma-separated list (for example, ilv1,ilv2,ilv3) or a range list (for example, ilv[1-3]). -t TIERNAME Specifies the tier to which segments are assigned when creating or expanding a file system. -w Disables 32-bit mode. -x When used with -i, omits segment details from the output report. -? Shows the usage for this command.
ibrix_fs_ops Manages directory tree quota entries. IMPORTANT: The ibrix_fs_ops command is deprecated in the X9000 File Serving Software 6.0 release. Use the ibrix_edquota command to create, delete, or view directory tree quotas. Description Directory tree quotas apply to a file system located at a specific directory tree. Use the ibrix_fs_ops command to create, delete, or view directory tree quotas.
ibrix_fs_tune Overrides the default file allocation behavior on file serving nodes and clients. Description X9000 Software allocates new files and directories to segments according to allocation policies and segment preference settings that are in effect on the host that creates the file or directory. An allocation policy controls segment selection. A segment preference setting overrides allocation policies to prefer particular segments for storage.
ibrix_client on the X9000 clients, reboot the X9000 clients, or execute ibrix_lwhost --a on the X9000 clients. Table 2 File allocation policies AUTOMATIC The X9000 Software selects the allocation policy. DIRECTORY Allocates files to the segment where its parent directory sits. LOCAL Allocates files to the local segments for a file serving node. RANDOM Allocates files to a randomly chosen segment among preferred segments. This is the default policy.
To prefer a pool of segments for NFS/CIFS clients, specify only NFS/CIFS servers in the HOSTLIST. To prefer a pool of segments for X9000 clients, lists the X9000 clients in HOSTLIST or specify a hostgroup in the GROUPLIST. To prefer all X9000 clients, specify the clients hostgroup.
Option Description -r readahead Specifies the number of KB that X9000 Software will pre-fetch. The default value is 128 KB. -s LVNAME or LVNAMELIST A list of one or more logical volume names (segments). -t TIERNAME A tier on a file system. -? Shows the usage for this command.
ibrix_fsck Analyzes inconsistencies in a file system. Description If a file system shows evidence of inconsistencies, contact HP technical support. You may be instructed to run ibrix_fsck with corrective options that are not described in this guide. CAUTION: Do not run e2fsck or any other off-the-shelf fsck program on any part of a file system. Doing so will damage the file system. ibrix_fsck checks segments for file-system inconsistencies and optionally repairs them.
