#REDIRECT [[Network Shares]]
 
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.

=== Step 2: Create Network Share ===
Create a network share in a storage pool to provide users with storage via the CIFS/SMB and NFS protocols.
This step works with Microsoft Active Directory to assign network shares to users and 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".

=== Step 3: Add NFS Access ===
Creates additional client access for the network share. Click on the [[Add NFS Client Access]] button in Workflow Manager, or rightclick on the target network share under "Network Share" and click "Add NFS Access".
