Shared Folder Storage Infrastructure - HP STORAGEWORKS ALL-IN-ONE STORAGE SYSTEM User Manual

Figure 15 Shared folder storage infrastructure
ASM discovers any top-level and nested shared folders on your HP All-in-One Storage System during
setup and afterwards on an ongoing basis. ASM allows you to monitor and manage any top-level
shared folders created on your HP All-in-One Storage System using ASM or other applications, such
as Windows Explorer or the Shared Folder MMC snap-in.
After shared folders are created, communication between client and host takes place over the Common
Internet File System (CIFS) protocol.
Nested shared folders, which are shared folders that reside inside top-level shared folders, cannot
be created using ASM, but can be viewed in ASM by selecting the top-level shared folder in the
content pane and then clicking Properties in the Action pane. Use other applications, such as Windows
Explorer or the Shared Folder MMC snap-in, to create nested shared folders on your HP All-in-One
Storage System.
