File storage folders are referred to as Network Shares. Network Shares may be accessed via both the NFS and the SMB protocols. A Storage Pool (ZFS or CephFS) must be created before Network Shares may be provisioned.
 
=== Step 1 (optional): Configure Active Directory ===
 
Each storage system may optionally be joined to an active directory (AD) domain to provide SMB access to AD users and AD groups.

Set up Active Directory using the [[Network Share Configure CIFS | Setup Active Directory]] button in Workflow Manager, or click on the button ''Configure Active Directory'' in the toolbar under "Network Share" in "Storage Management".
