Sealing the Dataset
Seal the NFS dataset and deactivate it if the dataset is active
Sealing a dataset stops all writes to the dataset. This process can take some time to complete, depending upon the number of files and total amount of data copied to the import appliance.
If you issue the seal
command without the --wait
option, the seal operation is triggered and runs in the background. You are returned to the command prompt and can use the seal-status
command to monitor the sealing status. Running the seal
command with the --wait
option results in the seal operation being triggered and continues to provide status updates until sealing completion.
The sealing operation generates a manifest across all files in the dataset. The manifest contains an index of the copied files and generated data integrity hashes.
Using the CLI
Use the oci dts nfs-dataset seal command and required parameters to seal the NFS dataset and deactivate it if the dataset is active.
oci dts nfs-dataset seal --name dataset_name [OPTIONS]
For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference.
For example:
oci dts nfs-dataset seal --name nfs-ds-1
Seal initiated. Please use seal-status command to get progress.
