Provided features

Parallel File Storage provides the following features.

  • Volume Name: Users can set a name for each volume.
  • Snapshot: Create a snapshot to restore to a specific point in time.
  • Connected Resource: Can be connected and used in a Multi-node GPU Cluster.

Component

You can create a volume by selecting the disk type and protocol based on the user’s service environment and performance requirements. When using the snapshot feature, you can restore data to the desired point in time.

Volume

A volume (Volume) is the basic creation unit of the Parallel File Storage service and is used as data storage space. Users select a name and capacity to create a volume, then connect and use it in a Multi-node GPU Cluster.
The volume name generation rules are as follows.

  • It must start with a lowercase English letter and can be set to 3 to 21 characters using lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters (_).

Snapshot

Snapshot(Snapshot) is an image backup at a specific point in time. Using the image snapshot feature, you can recover data that has been changed or deleted. The user selects the snapshot created at the desired point in time from the snapshot list and performs the recovery.

Reference

You can create up to 50 snapshots.

  • You can recover by selecting a specific snapshot from the snapshot list and creating a new volume based on that snapshot.
guide
The snapshot recovery feature will be provided in the future.
