PowerScale OneFS 9.4.0.0 CloudPools Administration Guide

Inline access of cloud data

Users can retrieve file data in the cloud by accessing a SmartLink file on the local cluster through a supported protocol. This method is referred to as inline access.

When the user reads or writes data by accessing a SmartLink file, for example, through an SMB share, CloudPools retrieves and locally caches file data from the cloud. The amount of data that is cached is determined by the CloudPools Cache Read Ahead setting.

If the user makes changes to the file, CloudPools maintains those changes in cache and periodically updates file data to the cloud so that the latest version is always archived.
