86 Managing Your Storage

You can click on a column heading to sort items in that column. The Actions

button in the upper left corner lets you add, edit, delete, start, or stop a

package as well as manually fail over or fail back a package. You can also

refresh the information in the table by clicking Actions > Refresh.

Adding a New Package

Note

This section applies only if you have purchased a high-

availability NAS solution.

You must enter all of the high-availability information in the

Configuration tab before creating a new failover package.

To add a new package:

1

In the Command View NAS web interface, click the Storage tab.

2

Navigate down the tree and select Failover Packages.

3

Select Actions > Add New Package.

4

Enter a Package Name. Package names are limited to 40 characters and

cannot contain spaces, forward slash (/), backslashes (\), or asterisks (*).

5

Select a Failback Policy from the drop-down list.

6

Check Auto Start if you want the package to automatically start once the

server is running in the cluster.

Reboot on Failure

Enabled or disabled. If Reboot on Failure is enabled and a failure occurs, the

server automatically reboots.

Primary Node

Hostname of the NAS server that is designated as the owner of the package.

Under normal circumstances, the primary node (server) should start the

package by default. This name is selected from the list of cluster members or

nodes specified in the cluster configuration.

Volume Groups

Volume groups that the package maintains.

Virtual IP Addresses

IP addresses that will be used to access the volumes specified in the package.

You can have multiple IP addresses, but at least one must be specified. The

virtual IP address will become the “well known” address for accessing the

volumes in the package.
