4.4. A look at the LaCie Biggest S2S Configuration Mode
The LaCie Biggest S2S Configuration Mode is ac-
cessible from the Status window and allows volume
management. The Basic Configuration Wizrd defines
volumes based on a selected storage policy and does not
allow volume counts or capacities to be modified. To
protect against unintended changes, the LaCie Biggest
S2S Manager prompts for a password the first time the
Mode is accessed. (see 4.2.
Customize password
for ad-
ditional information on password management).
The Configuration Mode runs in one of two modes.
The Basic mode of the Configuration Mode defines vol-
umes based on a selected storage policy and does not
allow volume counts or capacities to be modified. In
Advanced mode, the Configuration Mode provides ad-
ditional volume management flexibility.
