Mounting a Remote Shared Drive in your Application Server

202

To mount a remote shared drive to your Application Server

1. On iControl’s Startup page, click System tools.

Figure 4-137

The System tools page appears.

2. Click Administration.

IMPORTANT: The external drive you would like to mount as a remote shared drive must be

a NAS (network attached storage) device. Miranda only officially supports the
use of a NAS in the context of this procedure. To verify your external drive is
a NAS, see your network administrator.

Note: When mounting a drive to an Application Server directory, you may only
change the configured IP address of the external drive and the name and path of the
Application Server shared directory if the shared directory is already unmounted.

REQUIREMENTS

Make sure you meet the following conditions before beginning this procedure:

• The external drive you would like to mount to the Application Server is a NAS (network-

attached storage) device and not a DAS (direct-attached storage) device. To verify this
drive is a NAS, see your local network administrator.

• The external NAS drive must support the Samba network file sharing protocol. To verify

this drive supports Samba, see your local network administrator.

• On the external drive, the directory you would like to mount is already a shared directory.

• You have opened iControl (see

page 696

).

• You have started both the Loudness Logger and Loudness Analyzer services in iControl

(see

page 197

).
