HD Storage Policy Configuration Mode Commands

 

The HD Storage Policy Configuration Mode is used to configure directory name and file parameters for Diameter record files being stored on the HD storage device.

directory

Configures the name of the directory on the HD storage drive where Diameter records are stored.

Product

HSGW, P-GW, S-GW

Privilege

Administrator

Syntax

directory name dir_name

default directory name

default

Returns the command to its default setting of using the policy name as the directory name.

name dir_name

Specifies the name to be applied to the directory. dir_name must be an alphanumeric string of 1 through 63 characters.

When configured, the actual directory path is:

/hd-raid/records/<record-type>/<dir_name>/

So if the directory name variable is entered as “sgwpgw”, the path is:

/hd-raid/records/acr/sgwpgw

Usage

Use this command to name a directory on the HD storage drive where Diameter records are to be stored.

Example

The following command configures a directory named cdr1:

directory name cdr1

end

Exits the current configuration mode and returns to the Exec mode.

Product

All

Privilege

Security Administrator, Administrator

Syntax

end

Usage

Use this command to return to the Exec mode.

exit

Exits the current mode and returns to the parent configuration mode.

Product

All

Privilege

Security Administrator, Administrator

Syntax

exit

Usage

Use this command to return to the parent configuration mode.

file

Configures file parameters for Diameter records being stored on the HD storage device.

Product

HSGW, P-GW, S-GW

Privilege

Administrator

Syntax

file { format acr { custom1...custom10 } | name { extension string | prefix string } | rotation { record-count num | time-interval sec | volume mb mbytes } }

default file { format acr | name prefix | rotation { record-count | time-interval | volume } }

no file ( extension | rotation { record-count | time-interval } }

default

Returns the command to the default settings for the specified keywords.

no

Removes the configuration for the specified parameters.

format acr { custom1...custom10 }

Default: custom1

Specifies the file format used when storing records on the HD storage device. custom1 is a vendor-specific file format.

name { extension string | prefix string }

Specifies a string to be pre-pended or appended to the filenames. By default, the policy name is used for the prefix.

extension string: Specifies a file extension to append to the filename. string must be an alphanumeric string of 1 through 10 characters.

prefix string: Specifies a file prefix to append to the filename. string must be an alphanumeric string of 1 through 63 characters. This parameter replaces the policy name used by default.

rotation { record-count num | time-interval sec | volume mb mbytes }

Specifies the triggers that prompt file rotation on the HD storage drive. All options can be configured and upon reaching any of the thresholds, file rotation is initiated.

record-count num: File rotation occurs when the number of records reaches the number configured in this keyword. num must be an integer from 1000 through 65000. Default = 10000

time-interval sec: File rotation occurs at time intervals (in seconds) configured by this keyword. sec must be an integer from 30 through 86400. Default = 3600 (1 hour)

volume mb mbytes: File rotation occurs when the record volume exceeds the value (in megabytes) configured by this keyword. mbytes must be an integer from 2 through 40. Default = 4

Usage

Use this command to configure file parameters for Diameter records being stored on the HD storage device.

Example

The following command sets the file rotation thresholds for files being stored on the HD storage device:

file rotation volume mb 4

file rotation record-count 15000

file rotation time-interval 7200

The following command replaces the policy name as the prefix of all files being stored through this policy with the prefix sgw:

file name prefix sgw
