NOTE:

It is not recommended to host both the LCR and the original Exchange components on a single HP
Storage System.

Using the Create a Shared Folder Wizard

The Create a Shared Folder Wizard walks you through the process of creating a top-level shared folder
(file share) on your HP Storage System, including allocating and configuring the required storage.

NOTE:

You cannot create nested shared folders on your HP Storage System using ASM. You may use other
applications, such as Windows Explorer or the Shared Folder MMC snap-in, to create nested shared
folders on your HP Storage System.
In addition, ASM does not support enforcing an allocated storage limit (or quota) for parent folders
of shared folders that are created and managed using ASM.

Accessing the Create a Shared Folder Wizard

1.

In the Actions pane, select Create a Shared Folder.

The Create a Shared Folder Wizard welcome page opens.

2.

Click Next to open the Choose Shared Folder Types page (see

Choosing shared folder types

” on page 16).

Choosing shared folder types

Use the Choose Shared Folder types page to enable the types of client protocols that are allowed to
connect to the shared folder.

1.

Select the Share this folder as a Windows share check box to allow Windows clients and clients
running the Server Message Block (SMB) and Common Internet File System (CIFS) protocols to
connect to the shared folder.

2.

Select the Share this folder as a UNIX/Linux share check box to allow clients running the Network
File System (NFS) protocol to connect to the shared folder.

NOTE:

If the folder is shared as a UNIX/Linux share, NFS user names must be mapped to Windows users
before clients can connect to the share.

If you are running a Windows-only environment, you should not select the UNIX/Linux share option.
