| What do "root squash" and "all squash"
mean when setting up NFS Access? |
Root squashing and all squashing are
mechanisms under the UNIX operating system for providing
security to NFS file system access on the network. If root
squashing is enabled, X4 NAS plus does not allow users with user ID
0 from another system or network to mount the file system with
user ID 0.
Instead, it maps user ID 0 to another user ID with
minimal access privileges so that he has controlled access to
resources.
All squashing does the same
kind of mapping but for all users who access resources on X4
NAS plus. For a detailed explanation, please refer to documentation
on exports command under Linux Operating system. |

| Why does the Overtemp Fan
show a status of Idle instead of
OK on the Server Status
page of X4 NAS plus Manager? |
The function of the Overtemp Fan is to run
only when the temperature inside the X4 NAS plus enclosure is over
60
degrees Celcius and when there is a hardware failure.
So
the Idle status means there are no
overtemp problems. |
