• Enable Distributed Lan Server on this machine: Select this
option to let the machine on which the file system is located to act
as a Distributed LAN server. (This option appears only for Linux
machines.) If you no longer wish the machine to be a Distributed
LAN server, deselect this option.
Deleting a File System 6
Use this procedure to delete a file system.
1 From the SNFS home page, choose File System from the Config
menu. The Configure File System screen appears.
2 Select the file system you want to delete, and click Delete.
If you are deleting a managed file system, you are warned that
deleting this file system will delete all associated data and you will
not be able to recover it. You are also warned that deleting this
managed file system restarts the StorNext Storage Manager.
If you are deleting a non-managed system, you are warned that all
files and directories in the file system will be permanently deleted.
Click OK to Continue.
3 Click OK to close the warning message window.
4 After the Status screen informs you that the file system was
successfully deleted, click Close.
Note: When you use this option to configure a machine as a
Distributed LAN server, all available IPV4 addresses are
used.
Note: If you want to delete an unmanaged file system that contains
storage disks or deduplication-enabled storage disks, you will
not be allowed to delete the file system until you first delete all
of those sdisks or dedup sdisks.
