FS7610 with EQL PS6510 storage

Hi,

How does FS7610 utilize PS6510 storage wrt presenting shares. Is it a 1-1 mapping of EQL volume to FS share or can FS present multiple (e.g dozens) of EQL volumes as a single share.?

 

thx

    If a FS7610 join to an  existing EQL Group it request the "NAS Reserve" as usable Storage. Its some kind of a special volume and you will see a different icon/color style. You cant "edit" this special volume.

    Based on this NAS Reserve you will create one or more containers within the FS. The containers are a abstraction layer because some settings can be only specify on a container like

    - Snapshots (schedule). FS use its own Snapshots!!

    - Permission Mode (CIFS, NFS or Mixed)

    .....

    Within a container you will create "unlimited" number of shares which can be access by your Clients.

    What i dont know is the following:

    - Is the NAS reservice comming from one pool or it is possible to request storage from different pools.

    Regards,

    Ah... the docs says not unlimited but 1024 Shares in total. The "quota" is also something you will set on the container.
