Folder and Share Management
The HP StorageWorks NAS 1000s supports several file sharing protocols, including CIFS,
NFS, FTP, HTTP, NCP, and AFP (AppleTalk). This chapter discusses overview information as
well as procedural instructions for the setup and management of the file shares for the
supported protocols. In addition, discussions on security at the file level and at the share level
are included in this chapter.
Abbreviated information on creating NFS file shares is included in this chapter; for detailed
information on setting up and managing NFS file shares, see Chapter 6, UNIX File System
Management.
NCP shares must be set up and managed through the NAS Management Console user
interface. For information on managing NCP file shares, see Chapter 7, NetWare File System
Management.
