MANAGING THE WD SENTINEL SERVER (DASHBOARD) 3. Grant Remote Web Access privileges if you want a user to access the WD Sentinel server, shared folders, computers, media, Home page links, and the Dashboard (administrators only) when you create or update a user account. To view a user's current privileges, click the Users icon in the Navigation bar. Note: The Guest account cannot have Remote Web Access. Note: Refer to Microsoft Online Help for detailed information about setting up remote web access and for troubleshooting connection issues. Join an Active Domain Server This option is available for networks that have an Active Domain server for user control. A domain is a group of computers under the control of a server known as the domain controller. In the case of the Sentinel DX4000, it enhances security by allowing only users with necessary permissions to access the server. Refer to Microsoft Online Help for detailed information. For information on acceptable domains, go to http://support.wdc.com and search for Knowledge Base Answer ID 8549. Shutting Down the Server The WD Sentinel server is intended to be on at all times, providing shared data and backup services. A best practice is to avoid turning the unit off. However, if it does become necessary (for example, moving the server to a different location), then follow the procedures below: It is very important that the WD Sentinel server be shut down or restarted in a clean and graceful manner. There are two ways to do this: through the Server Settings section in the Dashboard or through the power switch on the front panel of the server. WARNING! To avoid a potentially unclean shutdown that could corrupt the RAID configuration, shut down the server through the Dashboard rather than the front panel. To shut down or restart using the Dashboard (Preferred method): 1. Click Server Settings in the icon bar. 2. To shut down, right-click the red button in the lower left corner of the page and select Shut down. 3. To restart, right-click the arrow and select Restart. 4. When the confirmation message appears, click Yes. WD SENTINEL DX4000 29 ADMINISTRATOR'S GUIDE
