WD Arkeia Physical Appliance Installation and Configuration Guide
Before a client can be made known to the WD Arkeia Physical Appliance,
forward and reverse Name Resolution must be setup and verified via external
DNS or the WD Arkeia Physical Appliance and the Clients Host files.
1. Cross populate the "hosts" files on both the WD Arkeia Physical
Appliance and on the client machines.
Edit the “hosts” file of the client machines to list the IP address, fully
qualified domain name (FQDN), and any alias for the WD Arkeia
Physical Appliance.
EXAMPLE: LINUX AND UNIX
vi /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1
localhost.localdomain localhost
10.1.11.120 fileserver1.mycompany.com fileserver1
10.1.11.215 wdarkeia.mycompany.com wdarkeia
EXAMPLE: WINDOWS 2008
Use any text editor (e.g. notepad) to edit the following file:
c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
127.0.0.1
localhost.localdomain localhost
10.1.11.110 marketing.mycomapny.com marketing
10.1.11.215 wdarkeia.mycompany.com wdarkeia
2. Check forward and reverse DNS from the client to the appliance.
EXAMPLES
ping
wdarkeia.mycompany.com
ping 10.1.11.215
nslookup wdarkeia.mycompany.com
nslookup 10.1.11.215
3. Download the correct client package for your OS and Architecture, then
install the WD Arkeia package on the client machine. Client packages
