Important: The Aurora EULA restricts you, the user, from loading any other software, such
as application software, onto the Aurora. Tampering with, loading or using any other
software voids the license agreement.
Each Aurora is preloaded at the factory with its base operating system, RAID
application, installation, administration and optional SAN software. The code is
loaded onto the system's boot drives.
In addition to the operating system and basic EOS embedded application
software, each unit contains a web based browser interface which simplifies
remote configuration and administration tasks.
Specifically, the units come preconfigured with the following functions:
EOS: Linux based RAID application and User configuration / troubleshooting
