Chapter 1 Getting Sarted Guide Recommended Installation Sequence Follow the NSS installation steps to set up and configure the device. They provide out-of-the-box instructions. You can find detailed instructions for each step in the remaining sections of this guide. • Part A: Set up the hardware: - Step 1: Install the disk drives. Skip this step if you have an NSS4100 or NSS6100 as they are already equipped with disk drives. - Step 2: Connect the Ethernet cable(s). - Step 3: Connect the power. • Part B: Configure the NSS: - Step 1: Configure the Network Settings IF a DHCP server is not present. (If there is a DHCP server, skip this step.) - Step 2: Log into the Configuration Interface - Step 3: Configure the Time setting (options include NTP or manual). - Step 4: Configure the RAID(s). You can choose to skip this step if you have an NSS4100 or NSS6100 as it is preconfigured with a RAID5 array. - Step 5: Create the volume(s). - Step 6: If you have multiple NSS units (one of which is a NSS6000 series unit), and you want to virtualize your storage, set up the export/import of the virtualized RAID arrays. - Step 7: Set up the User and Group ID ranges and the users' home directory location (this enables the import of groups/users from Domain Controllers and to create local users and groups). - Step 8: Configure the Network Domain Identification (NT4, Active Directory, NIS, etc.) to join the NSS to a domain. - Step 9: Add any locally defined groups or users. (Optional) - Step 10: Create share(s) and enable access to these shares (i.e., CIFS, NFS, FTP). You can also define the DFS access. - Step 11: If you have an NSS6000 series unit, configure the volume snapshots. (Optional) - Step 12: Configure the share backups.
