Creating a New File Volume
File volumes are the basic unit of storage for a file system on the NAS server. In
order to create file volumes, you must already have created one or more volume
groups.
Note: On a high-availability system, you must add the volume group to a package
before you create a new file volume. Failure to add the volume group to the package
will result in an error that indicates the volume group is not active on the node.
To create a new file volume:
1. In Command View NAS, click the Storage tab.
2. Under File Volumes, select File Volumes Summary.
3. Select Actions > Create New File Volume.
4. Select a volume group from the pull-down menu.
5. Enter a new File Volume Name.
6. Enter the desired file volume Capacity.
7. Check whether you want quota management enabled. Quotas allow you to
restrict the space usage on your system for both users and groups.
Note: Enabling quotas may impact file serving performance.
8. When you store data in your new file volume, the available space decreases.
To send an SNMP alert when the used space on a volume reaches a certain
percentage, select a percentage from the Send Notification at drop-down list.
Note: This percentage is used in conjunction with the settings you entered on the
SNMP alert, email, and syslog configuration pages.
9. Click OK to create the file volume.
You have now created a new volume. You must make this volume available to
users before they can access it:
■
For Windows NT users, create a share.
■
For UNIX users, create an export.
