Amazon FSx Console
To update how file system tags are copied

    • To associate a new VPC route table, select a route table from the Associate new route tables dropdown list, and then choose Associate.

    • To disassociate an existing VPC route table, select a route table from the Current route tables pane, and then choose Disassociate.

  5. Choose Close.

AWS CLI and Amazon FSx API
To update a file system (CLI and Amazon FSx API)

  • To update the configuration of an FSx for OpenZFS file system, use the update-file-system CLI command (or the equivalent UpdateFileSystem API operation), as shown in the following example.

    aws fsx update-file-system \
    --file-system-id fs-0123456789abcdef0 \
    --open-zfs-configuration AutomaticBackupRetentionDays=30,DailyAutomaticBackupStartTime=01:00, \
      WeeklyMaintenanceStartTime=1:01:30,AddRouteTableIds=rtb-0123abcd

Modifiable file system properties

This section provides information on how to update the following FSx for OpenZFS file system properites. You can update an FSx for OpenZFS file system's configuration using the Amazon FSx console, the AWS CLI, and the Amazon FSx API.

  • Automatic daily backups – Back up your file system automatically on a daily basis. Modify the backup window and the backup retention period. For more information about backups, see Working with automatic daily backups.

  • Copy tags to backups – Copy file system tags to file system backups.

  • Copy tags to volumes – Copy file system tags to the volumes that are attached to the file system.

  • Provisioned SSD IOPS – Set a fixed number of IOPS or have Amazon FSx automatically maintain 3 SSD IOPS per GiB of storage capacity. For information on how to increase SSD IOPS, see Updating SSD storage capacity and provisioned IOPS.

  • Storage capacity – For file systems with SSD (provisioned) storage, storage capacity cannot be decreased after creation, only increased. For information on how to increase SSD (provisioned) storage capacity, see Updating SSD storage capacity and provisioned IOPS. For file systems using the Intelligent-Tiering storage class, storage capacity will automatically grow and strink to fit your data needs as they change.

  • SSD read cache – For file systems using the Intelligent-Tiering storage class, you can modify the sizing mode of the optional provisioned SSD read cache at any time. For information on how to modify your SSD read cache, see Modifying provisioned SSD read cache.

  • Throughput capacity – You can increase or decrease your file system's throughput capacity at any point. For information on how to update throughput capacity, see Modifying throughput capacity.

  • Weekly maintenance window – Set the day of the week and time that Amazon FSx performs file system maintenance and updates. For information on how to change the weekly maintenance window, see Changing the weekly maintenance window.

  • Amazon VPC route tables – For Multi-AZ file systems, FSx for OpenZFS creates an endpoint for accessing your file system in a VPC route table. You can associate new route tables that you create with your existing Multi-AZ file systems—allowing you to configure which clients can access your data even as your network evolves. You can also disassociate (remove) existing route tables from your file system.
