System and custom metadata
Two types of metadata are supported for queries, and both can be referenced in the same query:
System metadata applies to all files and directories. Each file and directory stored in IBRIX
includes a fixed set of attributes comprising its system metadata. System metadata attributes
are distinguished from custom metadata attributes by the system:: prefix. System metadata
attributes cannot be deleted by the user through the API.
Custom metadata applies only to files and directories where the user assigns them. Custom
metadata names are user-defined, with value strings also defined by the user. Custom metadata
is meaningful to the user, but it is not used by IBRIX. Custom metadata can be added, replaced,
or deleted by the user (see “Custom metadata assignment” (page 171)).
System metadata available
The following table describes the system metadata attributes available for query and updates using
the API.
For "date" types, see API date formats” (page 174).
With the exception of system::deleteTime, all of the system metadata attributes listed in this
table are valid for live (for example, not-yet-deleted) files and directories. For deleted files, only
the following attributes are valid: system::path, system::deleteTime,
system::lastActivityTime and system::lastActivityReason.
