This section gives you general instructions for configuring NSS with NWCONFIG. For more comprehensive steps, see Configure NSS Storage Groups and Volumes.
NOTE: You can also use the NSS Administration menus to configure NSS. For information that will help you decide which utility you should use, see 5. Determine how you want to configure NSS.
At the server console, enter nwconfig.
NSS load automatically with NWCONFIG if it is not already loaded.
Select NSS Disk Options.
Select Storage.
Storage allows you to view and prepare free space for NSS configuration. It contains the following options: Update provider information, Assign ownership, Release ownership, View free space, and Return to the previous menu. NSS scans your devices to find free space for NSS to use, and lists the free space on each device as a separate storage deposit object. You can also view free space. Once NSS has taken free space, you can create your storage groups and NSS volumes.
Select NSS Volume Options.
Before you enter the options, you must authenticate to NDS using administrator rights.
NSS Volume Options allows you to create one or more NSS volumes. The volume options are: Create, Modify, Delete, View volumes, and Return to the previous menu.
You can find out which storage group to select for your volume by checking the reduced amount of available space for the NSS volume you just created.
Use the Help utility for more information.
