System Administrator’s Guide to Installing DataMgr

Establish Access for DMFS Clients

Step 1. DataMgr is shipped so that only the DataMgr administrator can select clients’ ﬁle systems for management and can deﬁne migration criteria. By default, clients can only view managed ﬁle system selections and migration criteria.

Therefore, give clients root access if you want them to be able to add file systems and edit migration criteria. For information on file permission, refer to the chmod manual page.

Step 2. The BFS must be able to determine each client’s IP address from its name. Accomplish this task with appropriate entries in either the DNS Database, NIS Database, or /etc/hosts ﬁle.
