Finding a File System's Maintenance Window

When a File Storage with Lustre file system is created, the system assigns it a weekly maintenance window with a day of the week and a start time. Use this information to find the maintenance window of a database system.

The service may use the weekly window to perform routine maintenance operations on the Lustre file system. Normally, only a single maintenance window is used per month. Maintenance can take 30 minutes to four hours for file systems that are less than 1 petabyte (PB). Larger file systems might take longer.

During an active maintenance window the file system remains available, but can have degraded performance. In rare cases, the file system might become unavailable for part of the maintenance window.

  • On the Lustre file systems list page, select the file system that you want to work with. If you need help finding the list page, see Listing File Systems.

    The file system's details page displays information about the file system, including its Maintenance schedule.

  • Use the oci lfs lustre-file-system get command and required parameters to get a file system's details:

    oci lfs lustre-file-system get --lustre-file-system-id <file_system_OCID> [OPTIONS]

    For a complete list of parameters and values for CLI commands, see the CLI Command Reference.

  • Run the GetLustreFileSystem operation with the required attributes to get a file system's details, including its maintenance window.
