Chapter 3: Configuration
This section is designed to guide you in connecting to and using ConnectStor II’s built-in,
browser-based Configuration utility, the System Administration Manager.
Generally this utility will be used by a network administrator or individual responsible for
customizing ConnectStor II’s default internal file system and user rights settings for saving
and retrieving files. On ConnectStor II, this individual is known as the “supervisor”.
The System Administration Manager also controls hardware settings for system password
access, date/time stamp, email notification for specific events, use of uninterruptible power
supplies, operating system language compatibility.
Finally, the utility monitors ConnectStor II’s hardware status and drive array status. Since
most settings are immediately executed, please review this section in its entirety prior to using
the utility.
NOTE
: If you wish to configure ConnectStor II for use with
UNIX-based or Linux-based servers, you must first connect to
ConnectStor II through a PC using an Internet browser, then
select the
UNIX (NFS)
option to specify the Host Name and
Export IP address information for your UNIX server. See page
39 for instructions.
