Create a share disk
After creating one or more Disk Pools, it is time to setup the Share Disks. The Share Disks function like a shared
folder or virtual disk. They can be congured to use part or all of the available capacity on a Disk Pool, using one
or more of the following protocols: CIFS, NFS, AFP, FTP and WebDAV. Follow the instructions below to create one
or more Share Disks.
The Share Disk menu also allows creation of a Home Share (one per Disk Pool), as well as the Mount ISO Image
function. These features are described in later sections. Please read “Create Home Share Disk” on page 263 and
“Mount ISO image” on page 268 for more information.
To create a Share Disk:
1. Create at least one Disk Pool (see “Create a Disk Pool” on page 256).
2. Click on the Share Disk menu link. The Share Disk menu appears listing Share Disks that have already
been created.
