Re: [MooseFS-Users] New install, using established mount

[Aleksander W. <ale...@mo...>]

Hi,

If I understand you correctly.
You want to have resources in GOAL 1 on a specific chunk server(Witha
RAID6) and then move chunks to different chunk servers but in GAOAL 2?

If yes you can use LABELS and storage class with archive option.
You can assign LABELS to specific chunk servers and then create a storage
class that will keep chunks in goal 1 on one label and after some time they
will be moved to a different label.

Please refer to our labels manual:
