Configure File System Server

The StorNext FS server can be configured as either a dedicated or shared setup.

Dedicated Setup

In a dedicated setup, the StorNext FS server has TCP/IP connectivity to all StorNext FS clients, but it does not have Fibre Channel (FC) connectivity to the Storage Area Network (SAN).

NOTE	Failover cannot be used in a dedicated setup. To use failover, the StorNext FS
	must have a Fibre Channel connection.

Figure 2-1illustrates a dedicated setup.
