6 Navigate to an existing StorNext server on the SAN and copy the
fsnameservers file to your Macintosh client in /Library/Filesystems/Xsan/
config/
. This file should contain the IP addresses of the name server
machines.
On Unix: the fsnameservers file is located at /usr/cvfs/config/.
On Windows: the fsnameservers file is located at \%cvfsroot%\config\
(where %cvfsroot% is the directory where the StorNext software is
installed). This directory is usually located in
C:\Program
Files\Stornext\config\
.
7 Run RegisterSeRV in Terminal to ensure that the serial number is
recognized. Text will be returned if the serial number is not
recognized. (No messages are displayed if the serial number is
successfully registered.)
Note: Items in red indicate data you should enter which applies
to your configuration. Do not enter the red text shown in
the template.
For example, for <key>file system</key> you would enter
the name of your file system, not “file system.”
Note: If the content of the fsnameservers file specifies a fully
qualified domain name (FQDN), you must convert this to
the metadata controller's IP address by using the
command
host <FQDN>.
