Release 2 of the Vess R2000 Series incorporates principles of unified storage into its core operation in order
to simplify and streamline administration of storage resources and provide greater flexibility to administrators.
The Vess R2000 supports file-based NAS and block-based SAN to allow users and applications to access data
consolidated on a single device. The tasks of planning, setup and configuration of a NAS environment differ from
the same tasks for a SAN. It is recommended that administrators who intend to use the Vess 2000 NAS function
read the chapter dedicated to NAS function, “NAS Function and Management” on page 250 before setting up
NAS and SAN resources.
