Setting fractional reserve

You use the vol options command to change the fractional reserve setting for a volume.

Considerations

You can change the fractional reserve setting only for traditional volumes and FlexVol volumes with a space guarantee of volume.

Step

  1. To change the fractional reserve setting for a volume, enter the following command:vol options vol_name fractional_reserve pct

    pct is the percentage of the space used in the space-reserved files or LUNs in the volume that you want to reserve for overwrites. The default value is 100.

    Example

    The following command sets the fractional reserve space on a volume named testvol to 50 percent:vol options testvol fractional_reserve 50
