Installing Client Software

The SNFS client software communicates with your server and allows the mounting of one or more StorNext File Systems. Once you have downloaded the SNMS client software from the server, you can install the software on your client machines. You cannot perform these installations through the GUI; you must use command-driven procedures that are specific for your operating system.

The following procedures provide instructions for installing the StorNext FS client software in a Windows, SGI IRIX, Sun Solaris, Linux, or IBM AIX operating system.

NOTE	If you used the optional pre-installation configuration, you must first perform the
	steps for adding a user account and a group account on each machine that you set
	up as a client. (Refer to the Using the Optional Pre-Installation Configuration
	section in this document to perform these steps.)
