Creating server storage locations on a NAS device
Creating server storage locations on a network-accessible storage (NAS) device allows you to take advantage of the device’s storage capacity and backup capabilities.
About this task
This example uses the cleartool mkstgloc command to create a VOB storage location named ccnasvobstg in a region on Linux or the UNIX system.
cleartool mkstgloc –vob –host vobsvr1 –gpath /net/nasdevice/vobstg/nasvobstg -hpath /net/nasdevice/vobstg/nasvobstg ccnasvobstg /net/nasdevice/vobstg/nasvobstg
Use cleartool mkstgloc –view with similar options to create a server storage location for views.
The HCL
VersionVault processes
that support VOBs or views in a server storage location that resides on a
NAS device run on the host specified in the –host option
to mkstgloc. Choose a host that has an appropriate configuration
to service requests for access to the VOBs or views you intend to create in
a NAS-based server storage location.
Note: You cannot use the Server Storage
Configuration wizard to create a storage location on a NAS device.
