Distributed LAN 4
A StorNext client running on Windows can be configured as a distributed
LAN client or a distributed LAN server. (This is a licensed feature.)
• Distributed LAN Server: A distributed LAN server has direct access to
data disks (using fibre channel) and makes the shared storage pool
available to distributed LAN clients over a network.
• Distributed LAN Client: A distributed LAN client does not have direct
access to data disks and instead accesses the shared storage pool by
connecting to a distributed LAN server over a network. (Distributed
LAN clients have full StorNext client functionality.)
Note: A StorNext client configured as a distributed LAN server
requires a dedicated system. Do not run other applications or
services on a system configured as a distributed LAN server.
