Restrictions and Limitations

General

  • SFS supports the NFSv3 protocol only. The default export options are rw, no_root_squash, no_all_squash, and sync.

  • To obtain better performance, you are advised to use the operating systems listed in Supported Operating Systems, which have passed the compatibility test.

  • Currently, SFS does not support replication.

  • Currently, SFS does not support cross-region access.

  • SFS Capacity-Oriented does not apply to file storage scenarios requiring low latency and high IOPS, such as database services, website building, and code storage.

SFS Capacity-Oriented

  • SFS Capacity-Oriented can be accessed only on the intranet and used only on the cloud.

  • Currently, NFSv3 protocol is supported (NFSv4 is not supported).

  • A maximum of 10,000 compute nodes can be mounted to and access a single file system at the same time.

  • The maximum capacity of a single file system is 2 PB, and that of a single file is 240 TB.

  • Multi-VPC access is supported. You can add a maximum of 20 VPCs for one file system and create a maximum of 400 ACL rules for all added VPCs.

SFS Turbo

  • Only the NFSv3 protocol is supported (NFSv4 is not supported).

  • A maximum of 500 compute nodes can be mounted to and access a single file system at the same time.

  • The maximum capacity of a single file system is 32 TB, and the maximum capacity of a single file is 16 TB.

  • Maximum number of files supported by a single file system = Capacity/16 KB. For example, the maximum number of files supported by a 500 GB file system is 32,768,000 (500 GB/16 KB = 500 x 1024 x 1024/16).

  • By default, a single directory contains a maximum of 2 million files.

  • The maximum full path is 1024 bytes, and the maximum file name length is 255 bytes.

  • The maximum soft link length is 1024 bytes.

  • The maximum number of hard links is 255.

  • The maximum directory depth is 100 layers.
