The share is now available as a network drive to be mounted from a UNIX or Linux server so
that it may be a target for the backup application. See the
HP StoreOnce Linux/Unix
Configuration Guide
for more information on mounting shares.
NOTE:
The share is not optimized for general purpose file storage. The HP StoreOnce Backup
system is a NAS deduplicating appliance that is optimized for backup.
Once you have created the share, if the correct license has been applied, the
Secure Erase
Enabled
checkbox appears. You can now check
Secure Erase Enabled
to enable secure erase.
See
“Editing share details” (page 57)
.
Best practices for mounting an NFS share
Use
o forcedirectio
or
o sync
option when configuring an NFS share to prevent issues
with “out of order delivery.” See also the
HP StoreOnce Linux/Unix Configuration Guide
.
NOTE:
The sync patches require an rpm update of the operating system before the
o sync
or
-o forcedirectio
mount option can be specified.
