1.1.3 System Protection

The DNS-3200 is designed for network file services and meets industrial standards, such as hardware RAID and Web interface remote manage- ment for successful upgrading and increased stability and reliability of the system.

To aid system reliability, the DNS-3200 operating system is configured with RAID 1N technology when released from the factory, where the first 10 GB of hard disk space is kept for Mirroring and the operating system is installed in that area. If several hard disks experience problems, the user may still turn on the operating system. The user may also use the Mirror Split to divide the operating system that has been installed, enabling a dual operating system mode. If the primary operating system is damaged and not available, the backup system will boot the unit for ser- vice while the damaged operating system can be repaired.

Note: For details on installation of the dual operating system and repairs of the operating system, please refer to System Protection and Repairs.

As for protection of the data split area, the DNS-3200 is available with a logical region of the hard disk excluded from the space for the operating system. The operating system uses RAID 5 technology when released
