StorNext FS requires the user account www to exist in the passwd file, and the group account
adic to exist in the group file. During installation, StorNext FS uses a system utility to create these
accounts if it cannot find them.
• If you want the system utility to create the accounts, skip this section and go to the
Installing StorNext FS Software section in this document.
• If you prefer to manually add these accounts, use the procedure described below. You must
not only perform this procedure for each machine on which you install the StorNext FS
software, but also on each machine that you set up as a client (refer to the
Installing Client
Software section in this document). After you have completed this optional step, continue
to the Installing StorNext FS Software section in this document.
Step 1 Add the user account www.
Step 2 Add the group account adic.
Use the following procedure to install the StorNext FS software in your UNIX operating
environment. Both server and client files are loaded on your machine during the installation
process.
Step 1 Designate one machine as your server.
Step 2 Load the CD that is appropriate for your operating system.
