Creating continuously available (CA) share

You can create continuously available (CA) shares using the Amazon FSx CLI for Remote Management on PowerShell. CA shares created on an FSx for Windows File Server Multi-AZ file system are highly durable and highly available. An Amazon FSx Single-AZ file system is built on a single node cluster. As a result, CA shares created on a Single-AZ file system are highly durable, but are not highly available. Use the New-FSxSmbShare command with the -ContinuouslyAvailable option set to $True to specify that the share is a continuously available share. The following is an example command to create a CA share. 

New-FSxSmbShare -Name "New CA Share" -Path "D:\share\new-share" -Description "CA share" -ContinuouslyAvailable $True

You can modify the -ContinuouslyAvailable option on an existing file share using the Set-FSxSmbShare command.
