3Installing the StorNext Client
This chapter describes how to install the StorNext client software. The
StorNext client software lets you mount and work with StorNext file
systems.
To ensure successful operation, make sure the client system meets all
operating system and hardware requirements (see
Client System
Requirements).
To install the StorNext client software, first download the client software
from the metadata controller (MDC) (see
Downloading the StorNext
Client Software on page 39).
After downloading the client software, install and configure it using the
appropriate method for your operating system (see
Installing the
StorNext Client on Linux or Unix on page 42 or Installing the StorNext
Client on Windows on page 51).
Note: Before installing the StorNext client software, you must install
and configure StorNext on an MDC. For more information, see
Chapter 1, “Installing StorNext File System and Storage
Manager” or Chapter 2, “Installing StorNext File System.”
