Folder and share management The HP ProLiant Storage Server supports several file-sharing protocols, including DFS, NFS, FTP, HTTP, and Microsoft SMB. This section discusses overview information as well as procedures for the setup and management of the file shares for the supported protocols. Security at the file level and at the share level is also discussed. NOTE: Detailed information on setting up and managing NFS and NCP shares is discussed in Microsoft Services for Network File System (MSNFS). NOTE: Select servers can be deployed in a clustered or non-clustered configuration. This section discusses share setup for a non-clustered deployment. Folder management Volumes and folders on any system are used to organize data. Regardless of system size, systematic structuring and naming conventions of volumes and folders eases the administrative burden. Moving from volumes to folders to shares increases the level of granularity of the types of data stored in the unit and the level of security access allowed. Folders can be managed using the HP Storage Server Management Console. Tasks include: • Accessing a specific volume or folder • Creating a new folder • Deleting a folder • Modifying folder properties • Creating a new share for a volume or folder • Managing shares for a volume or folder Managing file-level permissions Security at the file level is managed using Windows Explorer. File level security includes settings for permissions, ownership, and auditing for individual files. To enter file permissions: 1. Using Windows Explorer, access the folder or file that needs to be changed, and then right-click the folder. HP ProLiant Storage Server 81

Folder and share management
The HP ProLiant Storage Server supports several file-sharing protocols, including DFS, NFS, FTP, HTTP,
and Microsoft SMB. This section discusses overview information as well as procedures for the setup
and management of the file shares for the supported protocols. Security at the file level and at the
share level is also discussed.
NOTE:
Detailed information on setting up and managing NFS and NCP shares is discussed in
Microsoft Services for Network File System (MSNFS)
.
NOTE:
Select servers can be deployed in a clustered or non-clustered configuration. This section discusses share
setup for a non-clustered deployment.
Folder management
Volumes and folders on any system are used to organize data. Regardless of system size, systematic
structuring and naming conventions of volumes and folders eases the administrative burden. Moving
from volumes to folders to shares increases the level of granularity of the types of data stored in the
unit and the level of security access allowed.
Folders can be managed using the HP Storage Server Management Console. Tasks include:
•
Accessing a specific volume or folder
•
Creating a new folder
•
Deleting a folder
•
Modifying folder properties
•
Creating a new share for a volume or folder
•
Managing shares for a volume or folder
Managing file-level permissions
Security at the file level is managed using Windows Explorer.
File level security includes settings for permissions, ownership, and auditing for individual files.
To enter file permissions:
1.
Using Windows Explorer, access the folder or file that needs to be changed, and then right-click
the folder.
