Using a Backup to Create a File System

In case of a virus attack, accidental deletion, or software or hardware fault, you can use an SFS Turbo file system backup to create a new file system. After it is created, data on the new file system is the same as that in the backup.

Procedure

  1. Click the Backups tab. Locate the desired backup. For details, see Viewing a Backup.
  2. If the status of the target backup is Available, click Create File System in the Operation column of the backup.
  3. Set the file system parameters.

    • For detailed parameter descriptions, see table "Parameter description" under "Creating an SFS Turbo File System" in the Scalable File Service User Guide.

  4. Click Next.
  5. Go back to the file system list and check whether the file system is successfully created.

    You will see the file system status change as follows: Creating, Available, Restoring, Available. After the file system status has changed from Creating to Available, the file system is successfully created. After the status has changed from Restoring to Available, backup data has been successfully restored to the created file system.
