HP Enterprise File Services WAN Accelerator manual Enabling Synchronizing Prepopulation Shares

4.Use the controls to complete the configuration, as described in the following table.

Control	Description
Add a Prepopulation Share	Enable/Disable. Click Enable to enable prepopulation on the share; click Disable to
	disable prepopulation on the share.
Transparent Prepopulation Using	Enable Transparent Pre-population Support. Specify this option to enable transparent
the RCU	pre-population using the HP Copy Utility (RCU).
	To enable transparent pre-population using the RCU, you must install and run the RCU
	on the client and server. Because the data has already been copied to the client and server,
	the HP EFS WAN Accelerator only copies new data, increasing optimization of traffic
	across the WAN. The RCU is available for download from the HP Technical Support site
	at http://www.hp.com.
	Apply. Click Apply to apply your settings to the running configuration. (Apply your
	settings to test a new configuration before saving them permanently.)
	Save. Click Save to save your settings permanently or click Reset to return the settings
	to their previous values.
Prepopulation Shares	Remote Path. The path to the data on the origin server or the Universal Naming
	Convention (UNC) path of a share to which you want to make available for
	prepopulation. For example,
	\\<origin-file-server>\<local-name>
	NOTE: Do not use guest or anonymous access to a Samba share. Also, the share and the
	origin-server share name cannot contain Unicode characters. The Management Console
	does not support Unicode characters.
	Account. The local administrator account used to manage prepopulation shares.
	Password/Password Confirm. Specify a password. You must use the correct syntax for
	the administrator login name (for example: admin_user@parent_realm) even if you
	belong to a subdomain.
	Comment. Specify comments to help you identify the share.
	Sync Schedule Date and Time. Specify a date and time to schedule synchronization of
	prepopulation shares with the HP EFS WAN Accelerator. The share conducts automatic
	synchronization with the origin server based on the synchronization interval.
	The first synchronization, or the initial copy, retrieves data from origin file server and
	copies it to the local disk on the HP EFS WAN Accelerator. Subsequent synchronizations
	are based on the synchronization interval.
	Sync Interval. Interval of updates (synchronization) in minutes. After the initial
	synchronization, the HP EFS WAN Accelerator retrieves data from the server at every
	synchronization interval. In these subsequent synchronizations, only new data that was
	modified or created after the previous synchronization is sent from file server to HP EFS
	WAN Accelerator.
