During initial setup, you must specify how to manage and maintain the
Hosts and Trusted Hosts files. Hosts file management lets you map a
machine name to its IP address. Trusted Hosts file management lets you
configure hosts on your network so that they have a trusted relationship
with the HP NetStorage 6000. A trusted relationship lets the host perform
administrative functions, such as file changes and remote network backup
(on the HP NetStorage 6000).

To add a Hosts file:

1

Using the NetStorage web interface, click the Configuration tab, then
select Network Settings > UNIX Settings.

2

Click Add next to the Hosts File Management field. The Add Host
File Entry
screen appears.

Enter a Host Name and a Host IP Address.
