Choose Client from the Role pop-up menu.

You can choose Controller if you want the computer to be used as a client but want it

also to be available as a standby controller for the SAN.

Type an Xsan software serial number.

You can find the serial number for a single copy of Xsan on the Xsan installation disc

sleeve. If you have purchased a site-licensed serial number, look on the paperwork you

received when you purchased the license.

If you’re using a site-licensed serial number, type the registered license holder and

organization in the “Registered to” and Organization fields.

Click OK, and then click Save.

Now you can mount Xsan volumes on the client.

Adding a Client to a StorNext SAN

If you already have an ADIC StorNext File System set up, you can add Macintosh Xsan

clients to it. For more information, see Appendix A.
