protectedpath start-prefetch

This command is used to prefetch a folder to the cache on a cluster. The cluster must be the destination cluster for a Global Access share of a protected path on a source cluster.

Usage

vcli: admin> protectedpath start-prefetch --id ID
                                          --path PATH
                                          --prefetch-type TYPE

Required Parameters

--id ID

The Protected Path ID.

--path PATH

The path (file or folder) to prefetch. Example: /test or /test/file.dat

The path on the source cluster is fetched. If the path does not exist on the source, the command fails.

--prefetch-type TYPE

The type of prefetch to perform.

Options:

META_DATA_ONLY. Prefetches only the metadata for the folder and subfolders
FULL. Prefetches the metadata and file data in the folder and subfolders

Example

This example prefetches a folder (all the files) to the cache.

vcli: admin> protectedpath start-prefetch --id 123 --path /test --prefetch-type FULL
