4 1-1) Overview of the Service Cloudⁿ File Storage provides the service that uses the NFS, a general-purpose protocol for Linux, to enable you to use a storage area of a large capacity and with high integrity. Virtual Server (Linux) IPsec Internet Cloud n Compute (East Japan Region) Cloud n File Storage When you use the Cloudⁿ File Storage service, you can use the NFS protocol from Cloud n Compute to make any use of the storage area with large capacity. In addition, as communications are performed by using the IPsec tunnel from Cloud n Compute, you can use the storage with guaranteed security. You can have an access to use File Storage only from a virtual server running a Linux OS (Cent OS/Ubuntu) in a Cloud n Compute environment (East Japan Region). To apply for the File Storage service, you need to specify the global IP address of the Cloud n Compute virtual server you want to use. In addition, besides a current contract for Cloud n Compute, you need to set up another IPsec to use the service. The File Storage service enables two or more users to share a storage device connected over an IPsec tunnel. The service quality may deteriorate depending on devices and network load. 4

5 1-2) Making Preparation in Advance Before you start using the Cloudⁿ File Storage service, prepare everything listed below: A virtual server created on Compute to use the File Storage service Prepare a virtual server (running such Linux OS as Cent OS and Ubuntu) created on Compute (the FLAT type in East Japan) as a server to use File Storage in the Cloudⁿ File Storage service. For how to create a virtual server, see "Cloudⁿ Compute (FLAT Type) Operation Manual". "Cloudⁿ User's Guide" Prepare "Guidance of the Contents for Using [Cloud n ]" sent when you make a new application for Cloudⁿ. *Listed below are what you need to prepare as a client PC when you set up the File Storage service. The service that enables you to have an access to the Internet Prepare some service that enables you to have an access to the Internet. Example: Always-on connection and so forth provided by OCN Dial Access Service, OCN ADSL Connection Service, Super OCN, and so on *You can use Internet connection service provided by some other provider. The software that enables you to view the control panel (Web browser software) We recommend Firefox or later. Note that part of the control panel may not be correctly displayed if you use some other Web browser. You cannot use the File Storage service from a virtual server on Compute (VLAN type). 5

21 3-4) Mounting File Storage Mount File Storage over the IPsec tunnel connected in section 3-2), "Connecting IPsec to File Storage". In the steps described below, it is assumed that the following settings are made: [Information You Need to Have] /mnt/filestorage The direction at the destination of mounting File Storage [Information Provided When Start Using the Service] zz.zz File Storage target IP address BSDN _01 The volume name of the File Storage you use 1 2 Create a directory as the destination of mounting File Storage. (This step is not necessary if you already have a directly.) In the cse of Ubuntu, install "nfs-common" that is necessary for mounting. # mkdir /mnt/filestorage $ sudo apt-get install nfs-common ( Only when you use ubuntu) Mount File Storage to the directory at the destination of mounting File Storage. # mount -t nfs -o vers=3,tcp,hard zz.zz:/BSDN _01 /mnt/filestorage 1Mount Option Option Name (Argument) 1Mount option Description 2File Storage volume 3Mount directory -t Specify this option as the service is provided in NFS nfs Specify the file system as NFS -o Specify the options to use this service. vers=3 tcp hard intr Specify the version of the NFS Specify the protocol as TCP Specify the option to make the system keep retrying connection until connection is reestablished if a NW failure or the like interferes with the connection to the service Specify the option to enable a client to interrupt the file access when the hard option is used to keep retrying 21

22 3-4) Mounting File Storage 2 File Storage Volume Specify [File Storage target IP address]:/[the volume name of the File Storage you use]. Volume names are defined as described below. BSDN _[capacity] * here is actually a 9-digit number uniquely assigned to the customer. <Example> In the case of a customer who applies for 30TB First volume: BSDN _01 Second volume: BSDN _02 Third volume: BSDN _03 The three volumes listed above will be provided. 22

23 Check if File Storage is correctly mounted ) Checking File Storage Use the "mount" command to check the integrity of the mounting. # mount /dev/mapper/volgroup-lv_root on / type ext4 (rw) proc on /proc type proc (rw) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620) tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,rootcontext="system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s0") /dev/vda1 on /boot type ext4 (rw) none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw) sunrpc on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw) xx.xx:/ BSDN _01 on /mnt/extradisk type nfs (rw,vers=3,tcp,hard,addr= xx.xx) 2 Use the "df" command to check the capacity and the free capacity. # df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/volgroup-lv_root 36G 1.7G 32G 5% / tmpfs 939M 0 939M 0% /dev/shm /dev/vda1 485M 37M 423M 8% /boot xx.xx:/ BSDN _01 9.9T 1015G 8.4T 11% /mnt/extradisk 23
