By selecting a drive emulation type, HP LTO-2, 3, 4 or 5, you set only the default capacity of the cartridges within the library device.

This allows the backup application to: • Move cartridges from storage slots to drives in the library • Perform SCSI commands on - HP D2D | .HP D2D Backup System user guide (EH985-90907, March 2011) - Page 23

shares and granting access permission Now that the HP StoreOnce Backup System is part of a domain and can be managed, it is possible to create shares and grant access permission to them for domain account users or groups. 1. Firstly create a share on the Backup System that is going to be used as - HP D2D | .HP D2D Backup System user guide (EH985-90907, March 2011) - Page 37
any computer on the domain by configuring a customized Microsoft Management Console (MMC) with the Shared Folders snap-in. To do this first open a new MMC window by typing mmc at the command prompt or from the Start Search box. This will launch a new empty MMC window. Backup System user guide 37 - HP D2D | .HP D2D Backup System user guide (EH985-90907, March 2011) - Page 38
4. To this empty MMC window add the Shared Folders snap-in. Select File - Add/Remove Snap-in ..., then select Shared Folders from the left-hand pane. 5. Click Add > and in the dialog box choose the computer to be managed and select Shares from the View options. 38 NAS - HP D2D | .HP D2D Backup System user guide (EH985-90907, March 2011) - Page 39

Specify the level of permission that the users will receive and click Apply. Backup System user guide 39 - HP D2D | .HP D2D Backup System user guide (EH985-90907, March 2011) - Page 40
shares for NFS HP StoreOnce Backup Systems provide an NFS interface that allows you to configure the HP StoreOnce Backup System with NFS file shares as target for backups from UNIX and Linux servers. There are two configuration stages when creating a file share that UNIX and Linux users can access - HP D2D | .HP D2D Backup System user guide (EH985-90907, March 2011) - Page 41
wildcard is added by default, which will allow any host to access a share. Creating an NFS share 1. Log on to the Web Management Interface for the appliance. 2. Select NAS and backup to the share. If you enable it, any backup jobs currently using that share will fail. Backup System user guide 41 - HP D2D | .HP D2D Backup System user guide (EH985-90907, March 2011) - Page 42
storage. The HP StoreOnce Backup System is a NAS deduplicating appliance that is optimized for backup. Connecting to the NAS share on UNIX or Linux To access the NAS share from a UNIX or Linux server on the network, use the mount command. The actual syntax of the command depends upon which operating - HP D2D | .HP D2D Backup System user guide (EH985-90907, March 2011) - Page 43

This is the IP address for the device. The HP StoreOnce Backup System supports both dynamic (DHCP) and static IP addressing. The IP Address must be unique on the network. If you are using static IP addressing, you must also provide the subnet mask, default gateway and, optionally, domain name.

HP StoreOnce Backup System will be reset to factory networking settings and the Administrator password will be reset to Admin. No user data will be lost. Network configuration defaults to Single Port configuration, so you may need to edit the settings on this page. 3. After the reboot, the device - HP D2D | .HP D2D Backup System user guide (EH985-90907, March 2011) - Page 50
to disable this feature. SNMP (Configuration) This feature provides an HP StoreOnce Backup System with the ability to act as a Network Element in an SNMP network so that it can communicate effectively with Network Management Stations using SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). You use the SNMP - HP D2D | .HP D2D Backup System user guide (EH985-90907, March 2011) - Page 51
'public'. If you want to restrict read access, enter a string of up to 20 characters. This string acts as a password for Read access and must be manually configured in the management application so that it can access events (see "HP Systems Insight Manager" on page 52).
