</p>
<dl>
<dt><b><u>*NTFS</u></b></dt>
<dd>The storage space should be formatted using Windows NT File System. Storage spaces created with this format can be linked to network server descriptions with connection types of *IXSVR, *ISCSI or *GUEST. This option offers the greatest benefit in a Windows server environment because of its better performance and integrated support of long filenames, larger disks, extended file attributes, file-security and recoverability features.
<p>This option offers the greatest benefit in a Windows server environment because of its better performance and integrated support of long filenames, larger disks, extended file attributes, file-security and recoverability features. The size (NWSSIZE) parameter for a NTFS storage space must be at least 2 megabytes.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>*FAT</b></dt>
<dd>The storage space should be formatted using the File Allocation Table file system. Storage spaces created with this format can be linked to network server descriptions with connection types of *IXSVR, *ISCSI, or *GUEST.
<p>In most cases, however, greater efficiency and space utilization are achieved using the NTFS file system for Windows operating system types.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>*FAT32</b></dt>
<dd>The storage space should be formatted using the 32-bit File Allocation Table file system. Storage spaces created with this format can be linked to network server descriptions with connection types of *IXSVR, *ISCSI, or *GUEST.
<p>It includes support of long filenames and larger disk sizes. The size (NWSSIZE) parameter for a FAT32 storage space must be at least 512 megabytes.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>*OPEN</b></dt>
<dd>The storage space should be formatted with an open file source file system. Storage spaces with this format can be linked to network server descriptions with Linux or AIX operating systems only.
</dd>
<dt><b>*NTFSQR</b></dt>
<dd>The storage space should be formatted using Windows NT File System. Storage spaces created with this format will contain special attributes which makes it only linkable as a quorum resource disk used for Windows clustering.
