Updating a tiering policy
You can modify a volume's tiering policy using the Amazon Web Services Management Console, Amazon CLI and API, and the ONTAP CLI.
Use the following procedure to modify a volume's data-tiering policy using the Amazon Web Services Management Console.
Open the Amazon FSx console at https://console.amazonaws.cn/fsx/
. Choose Volumes in the left navigation pane, then choose the ONTAP volume for which you want to modify the data-tiering policy.
Choose Update volume from the Actions drop down menu. The Update volume window appears.
For Capacity pool tiering policy, choose the new policy for the volume. For more information, see Volume tiering policies.
Choose Update to apply the new policy to the volume.
Modify a volume's tiering policy using the update-volume CLI command (UpdateVolume is the equivalent Amazon FSx API action). The following CLI command example sets a volume's data-tiering policy to
SNAPSHOT_ONLY
.aws fsx update-volume \ --volume-id
fsxvol-abcde0123456789f
--ontap-configuration TieringPolicy={Name=SNAPSHOT_ONLY}For a successful request, the system responds with the volume description.
{ "Volume": { "CreationTime": "2021-10-05T14:27:44.332000-04:00", "FileSystemId": "fs-abcde0123456789f", "Lifecycle": "CREATED", "Name": "vol1", "OntapConfiguration": { "FlexCacheEndpointType": "NONE", "JunctionPath": "/vol1", "SecurityStyle": "UNIX", "SizeInMegabytes": 1048576, "StorageEfficiencyEnabled": true, "StorageVirtualMachineId": "svm-abc0123de456789f", "StorageVirtualMachineRoot": false, "TieringPolicy": { "CoolingPeriod": 2, "Name": "SNAPSHOT_ONLY" }, "UUID": "aaaa1111-bb22-cc33-dd44-abcde01234f5", "OntapVolumeType": "RW" }, "ResourceARN": "arn:aws:fsx:us-east-2:111122223333:volume/fs-abcde0123456789f/fsvol-abc012def3456789a", "VolumeId": "fsvol-abc012def3456789a", "VolumeType": "ONTAP" } }
You use the volume modify
ONTAP CLI command to set a volume's tiering policy.

To access the NetApp ONTAP CLI, establish an SSH session on the management port of the Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP file system by running the following command. Replace
with the IP address of the file system's management port.management_endpoint_ip
[~]$
ssh fsxadmin@
management_endpoint_ip
For more information, see Managing file systems with the ONTAP CLI.
Enter the ONTAP CLI advanced mode using the following command.
