NOTE: While modifying the template, preserve the double quote characters (") that surround the
values of some variables. Removing these characters might lead to problems in certain cases.
3. To configure a new partition, apply the modified template using the following:
You have configured a new FSE partition. This FSE partition configuration is stored in the configuration
database as the first respective configuration revision.
Modifying the configuration of an FSE resource
You want to change the parameter values of your migration policy. Since these parameters are written in
the FSE partition configuration file, you will use the fsepartition command followed by the relevant
command options, which you can use in a similar way when re-configuring any of the FSE resources.
1. Check the names of the configured partitions in order to get the exact name of the partition for which
you want to modify a migration policy, using the following command:
2. Copy the parameters of the selected partition (in this example named PartitionName) to a file,
named for example MyFile in the current directory:
3. Edit the created configuration file and modify the parameter values relevant for your policies using any
text editor.
4. Apply the new configuration using the following command:
This FSE partition configuration is stored in the configuration database with a new revision number.
Reverting to a previous revision of an FSE resource configuration
You want to revert from the current to the previous configuration revision 4. You will retrieve the chosen
fourth revision from the configuration database, and then reapply it.
1. Check the names of the configured partitions in order to get the exact name of the partition for which
you want revert to the previous revision, using the following command:
2. Check the configuration history for the target partition. Use the following command to get the list of all
configuration revisions for the target partition in the configuration database.
3. Copy the contents of the chosen configuration revision (in our case 4) for FSE partition to a file, named
for example MyFile in the current directory:
4. Apply the chosen configuration revision using the following command:
This FSE partition configuration is stored in the configuration database with a new revision number.
Using the FSE Management Console for configuring resources and policies
You can use the FSE Management Console to perform tasks related to the FSE implementation.
fsepartition --add PartitionCfgFileName
fsepartition --list [--detail]
fsepartition --show PartitionName > MyFile
fsepartition --modify PartitionName MyFile
fsepartition --list [--detail]
fsepartition --show PartitionName --history
fsepartition --show PartitionName 4 > MyFile
fsepartition --modify PartitionName MyFile
