Modifying the performance service level and storage efficiency policy of the file share

Goal

Use this workflow to modify the performance service level and storage efficiency policy of the file share using NetApp Service Level Manager (NSLM).

Note: Only the performance service level and storage efficiency policy associated with the file share are modified. The file share remains in the same cluster.

Prerequisites

1.       NSLM 1.2.0 or later must be installed.

1.       OnCommand Workflow Automation 4.2 general availability (GA) or later must be installed.

To execute this workflow, provide the required information in the User Inputs field:

·         File Share* [Mandatory]: From the list, select the file share to be modified.

Note: The drop-down menu also shows the Assigned Performance Service Level Name, Assigned Storage Efficiency Policy Name, SVM Name, and Cluster Name.

·         Modify Performance Service Level: Select to modify the performance service level of the file share

·         Modify Storage Efficiency Policy: Select to modify the storage efficiency policy of the file share

·         Target Performance Service Level: From the drop-down menu, select the target performance service level for the file share.

·         Target Storage Efficiency Policy: From the drop-down menu, select a storage efficiency policy for the file share.

Result
