S1 Settings

The settings command can help you to increase security, detect abnormal storage capacity allocation, and adjust the output display according to your preferences.

CLI output preferences

To modify the display output format, use the settings output command. You may choose between tree, table, CSV, or JSON display format. You can also direct the output to a file. In any case, whether you opt to redirect or not, command output always appears on the S1-CLI screen.

Usage:

settings output (--tree | --table | --csv | --json) [--noOutputRedirection | --outputRedirectionPath=<text>]

Options:

Notice:

1. In the option argument <text> of --outputRedirectionPath=<text> the path to your chosen filename must exist. The system does not create a new folder for you. 2 If you specify a filename that does not exist, the system creates a file and names it with your chosen filename.
2. If you redirect to a preexisting file, the output appends to the end of the preexisting file.

Examples:

1. To display the output in a table format, run

   settings output --table
   

2. To display the output in a table-type format and to redirect the output to a file name myCMDoutput.txt (on a preexisting path /home/marketing/data), run

   settings output --table --outputRedirectionPath myCMDoutput.txt
   

Storage capacity units

To choose between decimal or binary display for storage capacity, use the settings capacity_units.

Usage:

settings capacity_units [--binaryUnits | --decimalUnits]

Options:

Examples:

1. To set the storage capacity unit to display in binary units, run

   settings capacity_units --binaryUnits
   

2. To set the storage capacity unit to display in decimal units, run

   settings capacity_units --decimalUnits
   

Setting multi-factor authentication

To increase security level set multi-factor authentication (MFP). Use the settings authentication command to enable or disable authentication.

Usage:

settings authentication --enable_MFA | --disable_MFA [--force]

Options:

Examples:

1. To enable multi-factor authentication, run

   settings --enable_MFA
   

2. To disable multi-factor authentication, run

   settings --disable_MFA
   

3. To enable multi-factor authentication without prompting for approval

   settings --enable_MFA --force
   

Abnormal capacity usage notification

To set parameters for detecting abnormal capacity usage, use the settings anomaly_detection edit command. You must specify a time frame T (between 0 and 60), and a change value P in percent. The time frame consists of a list of daily capacity usage values for the last T days. Denote the minimum and maximum of the time-frame capacity list with m and M respectively. Let D be the capacity usage of the current day (D may vary). If D > MP/100 or D < mP/100, then the system detects abnormal capacity usage. The system sends an email notification when abnormal capacity usage is detected. You can disable anomaly by setting either the change value or the time-frame value to zero.

Notes:

1. You can disable anomaly_detection by setting either the change value or the time-frame value to zero.

Usage:

settings anomaly_detection edit --timeframe_days=<Dnum> --change=<Pnum>

Options:

Examples:

1. To set a time frame of 50 days and a change value of 400 percent, run

   settings anomaly_detection edit --timeframe_days 50 --change 400
   

   • If daily capacity usage is four times bigger than the maximum daily capacity usage of the last 50 days, the system sends a notification email.
   • Similarly, if the daily usage is four-time smaller than the minimum daily capacity usage of the last 50 days, the system sends a notification email.

2. To disable anomaly detection, run

   settings anomaly_detection edit --timeframe_days 0 --change 400
   

Displaying abnormal capacity usage

To display settings for anomaly detection, use the settings anomaly_detection show command.

Usage:

settings anomaly_detection show

Options:

No options for this command.

Examples:

1. To display anomaly detection settings run

   settings anomaly_detection show
