6.6 Aggregate Volumes under a Share

An aggregation share is a virtual share which groups multiple volumes. It provides access to
multiple volumes from one single share, with each volume appearing as a single folder under the
share. Utilized on SmartExtend volumes, which are usually big in size, an aggregation share can
present several tera-bytes of data to network users. The NCP protocol does not work on
aggregation shares.
The directory hierarchy is like:
\\nas\share01\vol-001
\\nas\share01\vol-002
\\nas\share01\vol-003
vol-001, vol-002, vol-003 are volume names. Users will not be able to create any folders or files in
the root level of the aggregation share.
To create an aggregation share, please click the Create Aggregation Share button on the
Security Share menu of the administration page. Specify the share name and click Apply. Then
choose the volumes to aggregate on the Share Target tab.
To change the member volumes, click the --Show Members-- hyperlink under the Share Target
column of the share list table. Specify the volumes to aggregate and click Apply.
Up to 8 aggregation shares can be created on a NAS server. Each aggregation share can hold up
to 20 local or SmartExtend volumes.
