Completing system configuration

After the storage server is physically set up and the basic configuration is established, you must
complete additional setup tasks. Depending on the deployment scenario of the storage server, these
steps can vary. These additional steps can include:

Running Microsoft Windows Update—HP highly recommends that you run Microsoft Windows
updates to identify, review, and install the latest, applicable, critical security updates on the storage
server. For recommendations, instructions, and documentation to help manage the software update,
hotfix, and security patches process on the storage server, see Microsoft Software Updates on HP
ProLiant Storage Servers
at

http://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/storageservers.html

.

Creating and managing users and groups—User and group information and permissions determine
whether a user can access files. If the storage server is deployed into a workgroup environment,
this user and group information is stored locally on the device. By contrast, if the storage server
is deployed into a domain environment, user and group information is stored on the domain.

Joining workgroup and domains—These are the two system environments for users and groups.
Because users and groups in a domain environment are managed through standard Windows or
Active Directory domain administration methods, this document discusses only local users and
groups, which are stored and managed on the storage server. For information on managing users
and groups on a domain, see the domain documentation available on the Microsoft web site.
