Notes and Constraints

Updated on 2025-01-15 GMT+08:00

Naming

Table 1 Naming

Item

Description

SFS Turbo file system name

A file system name can contain only letters, digits, underscores (_), and hyphens (-). It must start with a letter and can contain 4 to 64 characters.

Tag key

A tag key can contain a maximum of 128 characters and can contain letters, digits, spaces, and special characters (_.:=+-@), but cannot start or end with a space or start with _sys_.

Tag value

A tag value can contain a maximum of 255 characters and can contain letters, digits, spaces, and special characters (_.:/=+-@), but cannot start or end with a space.

Specifications

Table 2 Specifications

Item

Description

Max. size of a single file

  • Standard, Standard-Enhanced (discontinued), Performance, and Performance-Enhanced (discontinued): 16 TB
  • 20 MB/s/TiB, 40 MB/s/TiB, 125 MB/s/TiB, 250 MB/s/TiB, 500 MB/s/TiB, and 1,000 MB/s/TiB: 320 TB

Max. number of files or subdirectories in a file system

  • Standard, Standard-Enhanced (discontinued), Performance, and Performance-Enhanced (discontinued): 1 billion
    NOTE:

    The number of files or subdirectories allowed in a single file system is calculated by dividing the total capacity (KB) by 16. If the calculated value is greater than 1 billion, the 1 billion cap is used.

  • 20 MB/s/TiB, 40 MB/s/TiB, 125 MB/s/TiB, 250 MB/s/TiB, 500 MB/s/TiB, and 1,000 MB/s/TiB: 2 billion
    NOTE:

    The number of files or subdirectories allowed in a single file system is calculated by multiplying the total capacity (GB) with 25,000. If the calculated value is greater than 2 billion, the 2 billion cap is used.

Max. number of files or subdirectories in a single directory

20 million

NOTE:

If you need to execute the ls, du, cp, chmod, or chown command on a directory, you are advised to place no more than 500,000 files or subdirectories in that directory. Otherwise, requests may queue for a long time as the NFS protocol needs to send a large number of requests to traverse files in the directory.

Max. directory depth

100

Max. path length

  • Standard, Standard-Enhanced (discontinued), Performance, and Performance-Enhanced (discontinued): 1,024 bytes
  • 20 MB/s/TiB, 40 MB/s/TiB, 125 MB/s/TiB, 250 MB/s/TiB, 500 MB/s/TiB, and 1,000 MB/s/TiB: 4,096 bytes

Max. soft link length

1,024 bytes

Max. hard link length

255 bytes

Max. number of file systems

32 by default. You can submit a service ticket to increase the quota.

Operations

Table 3 Operations

Operation

Item

Description

Creating an SFS Turbo file system

Supported protocols

NFSv3 only

Max. capacity of a file system

  • Standard and Performance: 32 TB
  • Standard-Enhanced (discontinued) and Performance-Enhanced (discontinued): 320 TB
  • 20 MB/s/TiB, 40 MB/s/TiB, 125 MB/s/TiB, 250 MB/s/TiB, 500 MB/s/TiB, and 1,000 MB/s/TiB: 1 PB

Max. number of SFS Turbo file systems allowed

An account can create a maximum of 20 file systems in a region.

SFS Turbo file system creation from backups

  • Standard, Standard-Enhanced (discontinued), Performance, Performance-Enhanced (discontinued), 20 MB/s/TiB, 40 MB/s/TiB, 125 MB/s/TiB, 250 MB/s/TiB, 500 MB/s/TiB, and 1,000 MB/s/TiB: supported

File locking with Flock

Not supported

Cache acceleration

  • Standard, Standard-Enhanced (discontinued), Performance, and Performance-Enhanced (discontinued): not supported
  • 20 MB/s/TiB, 40 MB/s/TiB, 125 MB/s/TiB, 250 MB/s/TiB, 500 MB/s/TiB, and 1,000 MB/s/TiB: supported. (Only eventual consistency is supported. If you need to disable the function, submit a service ticket.)
    NOTE:

    When multiple clients access the same file system, access requests of a client may be routed to different backends. Eventual consistency means that if a request hits a backend's local cache, it will fail to obtain the modifications made by other clients. Cache is normally valid for 3 to 30 seconds.

Max. number of authorized VPCs that can be added for a file system

20

Mounting an SFS Turbo file system

Max. number of clients that a file system allows

  • Standard, Standard-Enhanced (discontinued), Performance, and Performance-Enhanced (discontinued): 500

Not supported

New capacity value range

  • Standard–Enhanced (discontinued), Standard, Performance–Enhanced (discontinued), and Performance: The expansion increment is 100 GB. A Standard or Performance file system can be expanded to up to 32 TB, and a Standard-Enhanced or Performance-Enhanced file system can be expanded to up to 320 TB.
