Rated. / 5. Based on customer reviews
Control user access to les and folders on a volume, by setting up access control lists Â
(ACLs) in Xsan Admin.
Set up zones in the underlying Fibre Channel network, to segregate users and Â
volumes.
Expanding Storage
There are two ways you can add free space to an Xsan volume:
Add RAID systems (new LUNs) to existing storage pools Â
Add entire new storage pools to the volume Â
Both methods unmount and remount the volume on clients, so choose a time that’s
convenient for your SAN users.
You can also add new volumes to a SAN at any time.
For information about expanding Xsan storage, see “Adding Storage” on page 51.
