(See System Network > WAN > DNS Server) Dual DOM Supports for Dual Protection The most advance and useful of N8800SAS is Dual DOM implemented. In the normal circumstance, it has no need to have this feature involved.
Chapter 8: Revision updated (FW 3.00.03 to 3.00.04) What’s New There are additional features implemented into the new 3.00.04 version firmware. RAID Expansion for iSCSI Target Volume First, the iSCSI volume is now able to expand its capacity from unused space. From the volume list, simply select the iSCSI volume you like to expand and click the Expand button: You will then see the dialog box displayed below. Drag the Expand Capacity bar to the size you want. Then press Expand to confirm the operation.
RAID Volume Encryption With firmware v3.00.04, you can protect your data by using RAID Volume Encryption function to prevent the risk of data exposure. To activate this function, the Encryption option needs to be enabled while the RAID is created and followed by password input for identification. Also, an external writable USB disk plugged into any USB port on the system is required to save the password you have entered while the RAID volume is being created. See the screenshot below for details.
NOTE 1. With RAID volume encryption enabled, the system performance will goes down. 2. With RAID volume encryption enabled, RAID volume expansion will operated in off line mode. RAID volumes with encryption enabled will be displayed with a key lock symbol next to volume ID name. iSCSI Thin-Provisioning An advanced thin-provisioning for iSCSI feature is available in this firmware release. With this function, the iSCSI capacity can be more flexible and more efficiently serve more users.
Next, setup the physical capacity for iSCSI thin-provision volume by dragging the Allocation bar to the desired size. After the size has been determined, click OK to confirm. Now you will see the iSCSI thin-provisioning volume is available from the list. Please refer to the screenshot below.
Now you can start to create iSCSI targets to join the newly-created iSCSI thin-provision volume. Basically, the iSCSI target under iSCSI thin-provisioning has exactly same settings screen as the standard iSCSI target volume creation. The only difference is the “Virtual Size” of capacity. Unlike creating standard iSCSI target volumes, the capacity has been physically allocated. The iSCSI target volume creation under thin-provisioning can virtually be up to 16000GB (16TB). Let’s take the example below: 1.
The screen shot for iSCSI target volume creation under thin-provisioning; the physical capacity 333.8GB. The screen shot to setup an iSCSI target volume under thin-provisioning of 1700GB. iSCSI target volume creation. The maximum virtual size is 14300GB (16000GB – 1700GB(1st iSCSI target volume)).
This screenshot lists iSCSI target volumes created under thin-provisioning. The 2nd iSCSI target volume under thin-provisioning has been created with a capacity of 14300GB. This message appears if there is no more room for new iSCSI target creation. NOTE 1. Each RAID volume can only create one iSCSI thin-provision volume. 2. Each thin-provision volume can only create 5 iSCSI target volumes. 3. The notification will send out while the physical size of iSCSI thin-provision capacity has used up to 90%.

Chapter 9: Revision updated up to FW 3.00.08 What’s New There are additional features implemented into the new 3.00.08 version firmware. Updated Login User Interface There is a brand new design for the admin login UI. NOTE The previous chapters have screenshots of the original user interface. Please note that all changes are visual only. There are no functional changes.
Disclaimer Page Added The following disclaimer page has been added to this firmware release. Please click the check box if you do not want to have this page displayed during the next login.
Updated Main User Interface The look and icons of the main user interface have been updated. Add On-Line Register Service From main menu tree, there is a new “On-line Register” option added with this firmware release. This on-line register service can periodically update the user when new firmware and software modules are released by Thecus. To enable this service, simply check the “Enable” check box. By enabling this service, the items in bold will be sent to Thecus via the Internet.
Added Rsync Setting under Nsync Target The Thecus Nsync feature has added a third way to use Rsync to replicate data between two systems. For the target side to allow source cross data, the Rsync target server needs to first select “Enable” and then assign a username and password for authentication. NOTE The Rsync target server username and password is used for this replication feature only. It is not related to the standard local user.
enable the sync target server and input a valid username and password to grant access permission. Added 2nd Gateway for Clients of DHCP Server Route The adding of a 2nd gateway has been phased in to serve clients that use their Thecus NAS as a DHCP server to have another route to balance traffic bandwidth. NOTE If the IP sharing mode setting is set to “Enable” under WAN port, then this 2nd gateway cannot be configured.
Added Dual DOM for Auto Repair The unique Dual DOM feature can now perform “Auto Repair”. The Thecus NAS will backup up to five versions of the system configuration either by the default timing of 1:00am every day automatically or as scheduled by the user. This unique “Auto Repair” will be triggered if the primary DOM has a booting issue. In this instance, the 2nd DOM will take over the boot function.

Appendix C: RAID Basics Overview A Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) is an array of several hard disks that provide data security and high performance. A RAID system accesses several hard disks simultaneously, which improves I/O performance over a single hard disk. Data security is enhanced by a RAID, since data loss due to a hard disk failure is minimized by regenerating redundant data from the other RAID hard disks.
RAID 5 RAID 5 offers data security and it is best suited for networks that perform many small I/O transactions at the same time, as well as applications that require data security such as office automation and online customer service. Use it also for applications with high read requests but low write requests. RAID 5 includes disk striping at the byte level and parity information is written to several hard disk drives.
Disk Usage When all 7 disks are of the same size, and used in RAID, N8800SAS disk usage percentage is listed below: RAID Level Percentage Used RAID 0 100% RAID 1 1/n x 100% RAID 5 (n-1)/n x 100% RAID 6 (n-2)/n x 100% RAID 10 50% JBOD 100% n：HDD number 139
Appendix D: Active Directory Basics Overview With Windows 2000, Microsoft introduced Active Directory (ADS), which is a large database/information store. Prior to Active Directory the Windows OS could not store additional information in its domain database. Active Directory also solved the problem of locating resources; which previously relied on Network Neighborhood, and was slow. Managing users and groups were among other issues Active Directory solved.
