| | |
| 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".

| For more information, refer to the [[Network Share Configure CIFS]] page.
| |
| | |
| === 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".

| |
| | |
| For more information, refer to the [[Add NFS Client Access]] page.
| |
| | |
| === Step 4: Modify Network Share ===
| |
| Lets you control the network share's settings such as compression, quotas, and sync policies. Click on the [[Modify Network Share]] button in Workflow Manager, or the ''Modify'' button under "Network Share".
| |
| Network share can be modified to assign access to specific users and tune the share for a specific workload by adjusting the record size and compression mode.
| |
| For more information, refer to the [[Modify Network Share]] page.

| | |
| === Step 5 (optional):Create Share Namespace ===
| |
| Network Share Namespaces group together selected shares into a global namespace which is presented on all the selected storage systems. Namespaces use Microsoft DFS and NFSv4 referrals to automatically redirect NFS/SMB client connections to the correct storage system.
