[gpfsug-discuss] filesets inside of filesets

[Simon Thompson (IT Research Support)]

Filesets in filesets are fine. BUT if you use scoped backups with TSM... Er Spectrum Protect, then there are restrictions on creating an IFS inside an IFS ...

Subject: [gpfsug-discuss] filesets inside of filesets

Today we have following fileset structure on our filesystem:

/projects <-- gpfs filesystem

/projects/b1000 <-- b1000 is a fileset with a fileset quota applied to it

I need to create a fileset or a directory inside of this project and have separate quota applied to it e.g.:

/projects/b1000 (b1000 has 10TB quota applied)
/projects/b1000/backup (backup has 1TB quota applied)

Is this possible? I am thinking nested filesets would work if GPFS supports that. Otherwise, I was going to create a separate filesystem, create corresponding backup filesets on it and symlink them to the /projects/<projectname> directory.

Thanks in advance.
