Create a File System

Step One, Enter the UFS Product of File Storage

Step Two, Select the Target Region and Project Group for Creating File Storage on the Console Page

Currently, for the details of File Storage support in various regions, please refer to the Product Limitations section or consult technical support. Since the access to the file system is based on VPC, and currently only the VPC in the same project group with the file system instance is allowed to be selected for access on the console, please determine the project group where the host that needs to access the file system is located, and create the file system instance in the same project. If subsequent hopes for cross project group host access to the file system, it can be achieved by means of a console to connect the host and the VPC where the file system mounting point is located.

Step Three, Create a File System

It should be noted that at present UFS supports two products, capacity-type and performance-type, and supports NFS and SMB two protocol types. Please choose the appropriate product type and protocol type according to the usage scenario of your business. For details, please refer to the Application Scenarios and Product Limits sections. After confirming the product details, click “Confirm” and proceed with payment confirmation.

Step Four, Complete the Creation or Set the Mounting Point

Because the mounting point can also be operated through subsequent “Mount Point Management”, after being created it can also be done by clicking “Set Later” to complete the creation operation. It is necessary to ensure that the subnet chosen for the mounting point has at least three available ip.

Step Five, Show the Instance List After the Creation is Completed
