Model shared file system locations with storage profiles

A storage profile models the file system configuration of one of your host configurations. There are four different host configurations in the sample project infrastructure. In this example you create a separate storage profile for each. You can create a storage profile using any of the following:

A storage profile is made up of a list of file system locations that each tell Deadline Cloud the location and type of a file system location that is relevant for jobs submitted from or run on a host. A storage profile should only model the locations that are relevant for jobs. For example, the shared FSCommon location is located on workstation WS1 at S:\, so the corresponding file system location is:

{
    "name": "FSCommon",
    "path": "S:\\",
    "type": "SHARED"
}

Use the following commands to create the storage profile for workstation configurations WS1, WS2, and WS3 and the worker configuration WorkerConfig using the AWS CLI in AWS CloudShell:
