1. Create an FSx File System
- Navigate to FSx Console: In the AWS Management Console, search for "FSx" and select the service.
- Create File System: Click "Create file system".
- Choose File System Type: Select the desired file system type (e.g., Windows File Server, Lustre, OpenZFS).
- Configure File System:
- Name: Provide a meaningful name.
- Deployment type: Choose the desired deployment type (e.g., single-AZ, multi-AZ).
- Storage capacity: Specify the required storage capacity.
- Network: Choose the VPC and subnet where the file system will be created.
- Security groups: Configure security groups to control network access.
- Tags: Add any relevant tags for organization and management.
- Create: Click "Create file system".
2. Mount the File System
- Mount Point: Create a mount point on your EC2 instance where you want to access the file system.
- Mount Command: Use the appropriate mount command based on your operating system and file system type. For example, on Linux:
Bash
sudo mount -t nfs <file-system-DNS-name>:<mount-point> /mnt/fsx
3. Access and Use the File System
- Access Files: Once the file system is mounted, you can access and use it like any other local file system.
- Create, Modify, and Delete Files: Perform standard file operations.
- Test Performance: Evaluate the file system's performance for your specific workload.
4. Additional Considerations
- File System Types: Choose the appropriate file system type based on your workload requirements (e.g., high-performance computing, file sharing).
- Storage Capacity: Ensure you have sufficient storage capacity for your data.
- Performance Optimization: Consider factors like network latency, file system type, and instance type for optimal performance.
- Data Protection: Implement appropriate backup and recovery mechanisms.
