QuantaStor’s SAN/NAS Storage Servers provide file and block storage solutions suitable for a broad spectrum of workloads. IBM Cloud customers have the option of provisioning Hybrid SAN/NAS configurations that utilize SSD to accelerate write performance or All-Flash SAN/NAS configurations that offer the ultimate high-performance characteristics. IBM's Bare Metal servers give you full control over your dedicated appliance, while QuantaStor’s web-based management interface, REST APIs and QS CLI make storage provisioning and automation easy.

Quick Configuration Steps
Step One: Storage Management Tab → Controllers & Enclosures → Right-click Controller → Configure Pass-thru devices → Select all → Click OK
Step Two: Storage Management Tab → Storage Pools → Create Storage Pool → Click OK
For iSCSI Block Storage Provisioning:
- Storage Management Tab → Hosts → Add Host → Enter host IQN → Click OK (do this for each host)
- Storage Management Tab → Storage Volumes → Create Storage Volume → Enter volume name, select a size, → Click OK
- Storage Management Tab → Hosts → Right-click Host → Assign Volumes → Select volumes → Click OK
For NFS/SMB File Storage Provisioning:
- Storage Management Tab → Network Shares → Create Network Share → Click OK (do this for each share)
- Storage Management Tab → Network Shares → Modify Network Share & SMB Access → Adjust Settings → Click OK (do this for each share)
Multi-site Storage Management
Add additional drives to expand capacity. Additional systems may be added to a given QuantaStor Storage Grid for easy management of all systems across IBM data centers. OSNEXUS recommends provisioning 36 bay servers as expansion disk-enclosures are not available as an add-on after the initial server provisioning.
