Chapter 4 Configuring StorNext

Windows Configuration Utilities

 

 

The Client Configuration utility lets you view and modify properties for

Client Configuration

 

the StorNext client software. Use the utility to add name servers, map file

 

 

 

 

systems to drives, and configure a distributed LAN server or a

 

 

distributed LAN client.

 

 

To run the Client Configuration utility, on the Windows Start menu, click

 

 

All Programs > StorNext File System > Client Configuration.

 

 

The Client Configuration utility includes six tabs:

 

 

Drive Mappings on page 73

 

 

FS Name Servers on page 75

 

 

Authentication on page 76

 

 

Mount Options on page 78

 

 

Syslog Level on page 79

 

 

Cache Parameters on page 80

 

 

Distributed LAN on page 81

 

 

Click a tab to view or modify StorNext client properties. After making

 

 

changes on one or more tabs, click OK to save the changes. A message

 

 

appears prompting you to restart the system. Click Yes. Most changes do

 

 

not take affect until the system is restarted.

 

 

Drive Mappings

 

 

To access a StorNext file system, it must be mapped to a local drive letter

 

 

on the client system.

 

 

Use the Drive Mappings tab (figure 37) to map file systems to local drives.

 

 

Table 14 describes the fields on the Drive Mappings tab.

 

 

 

 

 

Note: You must specify a file system name server on the FS Name

 

 

Servers tab before mapping drives.
