License Identifier 4
Use the License Identifier utility to display the host license identifier. The
host license identifier is required to obtain a permanent license for
StorNext.
To run the License Identifier utility, on the Windows Start menu, click All
Programs > StorNext File System > License Identifier
. A dialog box
displays the host license identifier. Record this information.
To obtain a license, use the Configuration Wizard. For more information,
see
Using the Configuration Wizard on page 63. Alternately, you can
manually copy a license file to the StorNext Configuration directory.
To obtain a permanent license, contact the Quantum Technical Assistance
center at
licenses@quantum.com and provide the following information:
• The product serial number from the StorNext box or CD.
• The number of client machines connecting to the MDC.
• The host license identifier you recorded.
A Quantum support representative will send you a license.dat file. Copy
the file to the
C:\Program Files\StorNext\config directory. (If there is a
temporary license file, overwrite the file.)
Simple File System
Configuration 4
The Simple File System Configuration utility can be used instead of the
Server Configuration utility to configure a basic StorNext file system with
a single stripe group.
To run the Simple File System Configuration utility, on the Windows
Start menu, click All Programs > StorNext File System > Simple File System
Configuration
. The Simple Configuration Setup window appears
(
figure 46). Table 19 describes the fields on the Simple Configuration Setup
window.
To configure a simple file system, select the disks to use in the
configuration. Specify settings (file system name, block size, stripe size,
and maximum connections), and then click
Configure.
Note: Before configuring a file system, you should label disk devices.
