Create a Samba share that points to the newly created ShadowFS root, so that users can access it. Rights do not need to be set at the Primary and Shadow volumes themselves, unless they are not visible or accessible to the user or group assignment.
Log in to iManager as the administrator user.
In iManager, click .
Select a server to manage.
On the page, click .
Specify the following information:
Share name: Specify a share name that does not conflict with existing shares that are defined in the smb.conf file. To continue earlier examples in this section, USERS has been used, so the Samba share name must differ. For example, usertest.
Path: Specify the context-sensitive path of the ShadowFS root location for the USERS volume, such as /media/shadowfs/USERS.
Comment: Specify a description of the share, such as “User file storage for Windows users.”
Inherit ACLs: Enable this option to allow POSIX inheritance of access control lists and rights.
Click to create the Samba share.
If the share is created successfully, it is listed on the page.
