NOTES

   GENERAL OPTIONS
       Most of mfstools use -n, -h, -H, -k, -m and -g options to select format of printed numbers. -n causes  to
       print  exact  numbers,  -h uses binary prefixes (Ki, Mi, Gi as 2^10, 2^20 etc.) while -H uses SI prefixes
       (k, M, G as 10^3, 10^6 etc.). -k, -m and -g show plain numbers  respectivaly  in  kibis  (binary  kilo  -
       1024), mebis (binary mega - 1024^2) and gibis (binary giga - 1024^3). The same can be achieved by setting
       MFSHRFORMAT environment variable to: 0 (exact numbers), 1 or h (binary prefixes), 2 or H (SI prefixes), 3
       or  h+  (exact  numbers  and binary prefixes), 4 or H+ (exact numbers and SI prefixes). The default is to
       print just exact numbers.

   INHERITANCE
       When new object is created in MooseFS, attributes such  as  storage  class,  trash  retention  and  extra
       attributes  are inherited from parent directory. So if you set i.e. "noowner" attribute and storage class
       to "important" in a directory then every new object created in this directory will have storage class set
       to "important" and "noowner" flag set. A newly created object inherits always  the  current  set  of  its
       parent's  attributes.  Changing  a  directory  attribute does not affect its already created children. To
       change an attribute for a directory and all of its children use -r option.

   PATTERNS
       Since version 4.2.0 above attributes (storage  class,  trash  retention  and  extra  attributes)  can  be
       overridden by defining specific name patterns.
