Creating file shares
Once the storage space is set up, file shares are created by
selecting an entire volume or a particular folder on a volume and
designating that space as a network volume. That space is then
available to groups of client computers on the network. The client
computers access this space through a variety of file sharing
protocols using the disk space to store their files and folders.
1. Click the Shares tab and select Shares.
2. Click Shares to create a file share by designating a network
share name and folder location.
a.
Click New and type a name and a path.
Note:
Check Create Folder if the directory does not exist.
b.
Set client types to designate the types of client computers
that should be allowed access to the share.
c.
Click the appropriate Client Sharing from the General list
to set user and group permissions on the share.
