Mode

Description

 

 

Broadcast

In Broadcast mode, the share originates on the origin server and a read-

 

only copy is available as a share on the branch office HP EFS WAN

 

Accelerator. The data is updated periodically on the HP EFS WAN

 

Accelerator with the data from the origin server. You specify the

 

frequency of updates (synchronization) when you configure a share.

 

 

Local

In Local mode, after the HP EFS WAN Accelerator receives the initial

 

copy, new data generated by clients is periodically synchronized to the

 

origin server. The folder on the origin server essentially becomes a

 

back-up folder of the share on the HP EFS WAN Accelerator. Users

 

must not directly write to this folder on the origin server.

 

For Local mode, make sure that the folder on the origin server is either

 

not shared or is shared as a read-only folder.

 

 

 

 

IMPORTANT: The domain administrator must have write

 

permissions because the RCU uses that to update this folder.

 

 

 

 

CAUTION: In Local Mode, the HP EFS WAN Accelerator copy of

 

the data is the master copy, do not make changes to the shared files

 

from the origin server while in Local mode. Changes are propagated

 

from the remote office hosting the share to the origin server.

 

 

StandAlone

Provides read-write access to data on a branch office HP EFS WAN

 

Accelerator. There may or may not be an origin server at the data

 

center with which the share has to synchronize data to. For example, if

 

you want to load temporary data that does not need to be backed up at a

 

data center, you can create a share in Stand-Alone mode with or

 

without a remote path.

 

 

 

4.Type the remote path for the share in the Remote Path text box.

TIP: if the origin server is not the HP EFS RCU server, you specify the remote path using the Uniform Naming Convention (UNC) for the mapped drive. For example, \\<origin-file-server>\<local-name>.If the origin server is the same as the HP EFS RCU server then you must type its full path including the drive letter, for example C:\data.

5.Type the HP EFS RCU server name and port in the Server Name and Port text boxes.

6.Type frequency of updates (synchronization) in seconds, in the Sync Frequency text box.

7.Optionally, type a comment that describes the share in the Comment text box.

8.Click Add Share to add the share to the Shares list.

9.Click Save to write your settings to memory.
