4.7 - Shares and Permissions
Shares are a way to access information stored on OneBlox over the network. When OneBlox is
initially installed, a Public share is automatically available on the network (the default share name
is name of the OneBlox appliance-which can be found on the LCD) and provides read/write access
to OneBlox for all users on the network. Additional shares can be created through OneSystem and
shares can have different access permissions associated with each share.
Shares can be added and assigned the following permissions:
• Public — Anyone on the local area network will have read/write access (no username or
password required).
• All Registered — Every registered user with OneSystem has access to the share (username and
password required). If OneSystem is integrated with Active Directory, every user in Active
Directory will have access to the share (username and password required). In the user and
group permission settings read only or read/write access can be assigned to the share.
• Restricted — Only selected users and/or groups have access to the share (username and
password required). In the user and group permission settings read only or read/write access
can be assigned to the share.
For information on how to add shares, see “ How do I Limit which Storage Shares Users have
Access to — Adding Shares ” on page 91.
For information on how to add users or groups, see “ How to give Groups of Users access to
OneBlox — Adding/Editing Groups (Users) ” on page 78.
4.8 - Drive Management
Important:
All drives placed into the OneBlox appliance will be reformatted, therefore if you are
reusing an existing drive for use in OneBlox, back it up first before installation in OneBlox. You will
not be able to retrieve the data on the drive once it is inserted into OneBlox.
OneBlox supports many different 3.5" SATA/SAS drive options. Over 50 different makes and
models of drive are currently being used and certified with OneBlox. Drives need to be at least 1TB
or larger to be used in OneBlox. OneBlox 4312 supports up to 8TB drives with this release. If you
find a drive that seems not to work, please contact technical support. Although OneBlox supports
heterogeneous drive configurations, the optimal configuration is for all drives to be the same
capacity in a Ring. However, OneBlox with different drives are fully supported in a Ring. Please
review the FAQs at exablox.com.
