About standalone K2 Summit system and K2 Dyno PA DLC
configuration
To use the Browse feature in a system with a standalone K2 Summit Production Client,
the Quantum StorNext Distributed LAN Client (DLC) on the K2 Summit (the DLC
server) and K2 Dyno PA (the DLC client) systems must be configured. This requires
modifying the SNFS FsNameServers file on each machine. On a standalone K2 Summit
Production Client, run the DLC Configuration tool to add, edit, or remove the IP
addresses from the FsNameServers file.
To set up DLC on the K2 Summit and Dyno PA systems, you need:
On the standalone K2 Summit system:
•
The requirements described in K2 Dyno PA Prerequisites. For information on
configuring the K2 7.2.x software, consult the K2 Summit Production Client
documentation.
•
If upgrading to K2 7.2x software from an earlier version, the K2 Summit system
needs a unique file system name and storage disk labels, as described in Creating
a unique file system name and storage disk labels. File system names are case
sensitive.
•
The DLC Tool needs to be installed. This tool ensures that the FsNameServers file
on all the standalone K2 Summit Production Clients contains the IP address of the
Control ports of the name servers. There can be a maximum of three name servers.
•
Network adapters configured for the Dyno PA Browse feature. For more
information, see Ordering the Network Adapters for K2 Dyno PA.
On the K2 Dyno PA machine:
•
The requirements described in K2 Dyno PA Prerequisites.
•
The identical FsNameServers file that was required for the K2 Summit system
must also be located in the C:\SNFS\Config folder of every Dyno PA machine that
is sharing the platform service.
•
In the Dyno PA application, the administrator must use the SNFS configuration
button to map drives for each SNFS-configured K2 Summit system that will be
used with that Dyno PA.
