ShadowFS must be running in order to provide a merged view to SMB/CIFS users if you are using Novell Samba to provide file access to a DST shadow volume.
To configure a global policy to start ShadowFS at boot time, see Section 8.4, Loading ShadowFS.
Only one instance of ShadowFS should be loaded at a time. Before you attempt to manually start ShadowFS, ensure that you have stopped any running instances of it.
Log in as the root user, then open a terminal console.
Do one of the following:
Start: Enter the following at a command prompt to start ShadowFS:
/etc/init.d/novell-shadowfs start
Stop: Enter the following at a command prompt to stop ShadowFS:
/etc/init.d/novell-shadowfs stop
