72 Configuring FSE
There is also a timeout parameter (WORMTimeout) that defines the interval during which it is possible to
modify or delete a file after the file is closed. During this interval, the file contents and its metadata can be
modified; the file can be renamed, moved, or removed. Once the interval has expired, the file, its
metadata, and location can never be modified again. This parameter is commented out in the template
file. It must be uncommented if the file system type is “WORM”. The timeout value must be set according to
the specific archiving environment.
NOTE: If a WORM FSE partition is used for accounting or legislation applications, it must be related only
to WORM FSE media pools.
Examples of configuration files for WORM FSE partitions
The following is an example of a WORM FSE partition configuration file on Linux platform.
Linux specific
The differences between configuration files for WORM FSE partitions located on Linux and Windows hosts
are the same as with regular FSE partitions.
Step 5: preparing FSE media
Once all FSE resources except media are configured, follow the procedure below to prepare FSE media.
For specifics on preparing disk media, see ”Disk media specifics” on page 89.
