Configuring a Celerra file server for HCL VersionVault

About this task

These are the steps you must take to configure a Celerra File Server for use by HCL VersionVault.

Procedure

  1. Configure storage.
    Create an appropriate network interface, metavolume, and file system for use by HCL VersionVault.
  2. Create a mountpoint for the file system you created in Step 1.
  3. Mount the file system.
    Use the -o nooplock option to server_mount to disable CIFS oplocks. The default access-checking policy for server_mount is NATIVE. This default policy is recommended.
  4. Export the file system as needed for NFS clients (Linux), CIFS (Windows) clients, or both.
    The following commands export the file system /ufssc1 on Data Mover server_2 for NFS and CIFS access.

    server_export server_2 /ufssc1 server_export server_2 -P cifs -n ufssc1 /ufssc1

    Note: You must also configure and start CIFS services if you are exporting a file system for CIFS access.
