The Configuration Wizard (NAS Volumes Configuration) step 12 of 14 screen is displayed.

Creating NAS Volumes

NAS volumes can be created with file access security styles of NTFS, UNIX, or mixed. Due to security concerns, it is
highly recommended to choose NTFS or UNIX unless mixed is absolutely necessary. Most security concerns in a mixed
Windows/Unix environment can be fully addressed by using either NTFS or UNIX file system security modes in
conjunction with User Mapping.
NOTE: If you create NAS volumes with file access security styles of NTFS you can still manage and access an
UNIX file system and vice-versa.
1. In the Configuration Wizard (NAS Volumes Configuration) step 12 of 14 screen, click Add to define NAS volumes.
2. Enter appropriate values for the following:
a) NAS Volume
b) NAS volume allocated space
c) Alert when used space reaches
d) Send email events to administrator
e) Access time granularity
f) File access security style
3. Click Save Changes.
The new NAS volume is added.
NOTE: Repeat this procedure to define more NAS volumes.
