Despite these differences, NetStorage on OES 2 SP2 is every bit as valuable as NetStorage on
NetWare and is well worth the small amount of time required to install and configure it.
5.6.3 NetStorage Is Not Transferred
Because of the differences explained above, it doesn't make sense to transfer an exact NetStorage
configuration from NetWare to OES 2 SP2. Instead, you should move your data by using the
Migration Tool, then install and configure NetStorage on the OES2 server.
For most networks, NetStorage needs to be installed on only one server; however, this might vary
depending on the size of your network and your organization's needs. For example, if your company
is geographically dispersed, you might want to install NetStorage on one server in each geographic
region.
NetStorage can also be set up in a clustered environment so that if a NetStorage server goes down,
another NetStorage server in the cluster can take over the function of the downed server, and users
don't lose access to data.
