4 NAS functions
This page provides access to the following StoreOnce NAS functions:
•

Licensing requirements
•
NAS emulations have no licensing requirements unless you want the Secure Erase security
feature. Secure Erase requires a Security license.

NAS replication requires a license (per couplet) on the target site only if NAS replication is
used on that couplet.
NAS Configuration page
Select NAS from the StoreOnce menu item to display the NAS configuration page.
Two tabs allow configuration of a CIFS Server or an NFS Server for the shares.
The top half of this page shows the available service sets. Click on the service set and select the
CIFS Server or NFS Server tab.

The NFS server provides NFS interface shares that provide backup targets to UNIX and Linux
servers. See
Service sets and NAS servers
When configuring a CIFS Server or NFS Server, the configuration applies to the selected service
set. All stores created on that server are assigned to that service set. Each service set has a Data
VIF IP associated with it. This Data VIF IP is the IP address used to configure StoreOnce NAS shares
as backup targets in the backup application. The service set Data VIF IP is not the same as the VIF
used to log in to the StoreOnce Management Console, which is the Cluster Management IP address.
CIFS Server tab
There are two configuration stages when creating a backup target share that Windows users can
access; both stages are implemented from the Web Management Interface:
•
Configure authentication for the StoreOnce Backup system CIFS server. These settings then
apply to the service set and all NAS CIFS shares created on it.
•
Create NAS CIFS shares on the HP StoreOnce Backup system. See
.
