Setting up NetVault SmartDisk on the Dell™ DR4X00 Disk Backup Appliance

5. The Install script will step you through the installation. The non-privilege user that was created in

Step 2 above will be added. The CLI will prompt the user for the user account details:

SmartDisk supports Post-process deduplication. If you would like to
store the staged data (awaiting dedupe) at a separate location to the
SmartDisk application, please enter a path below.

Staging path? [/usr/smartdisk/diskmanager/stage]: /mnt/sw54-nvsd3/Stage

Please choose where you would like SmartDisk to store the data it has
deduplicated and the index of that data. You should usually choose a
fault tolerant disk for this storage. For the index, good random access
performance is also important.

(Note: A network share located on a third-party deduplication appliance
cannot be used for the Chunk Store).

Store path? [/usr/smartdisk/store] : /mnt/sw54-nvsd3/Store

Would you like to configure WebDAV authentication credentials? (y n) [y] : y
You chose Yes

Enter in the non-privilege user for the WebDAV authentication:
WebDAV authentication username?
: sdusr

Please enter the WebDAV authentication password for SmartDisk:
Please confirm password
:

6. Once the installation is completed the system will report that the installation was successful.

7. Disable Deduplication on the SmartDisk. The deduplication feature must be disabled when using

NetVault on the DR4X00. To disable SmartDisk deduplication, run the following:
“cd usr/smartdisk/foundation/bin”
