Configuring the metadata storage in NAS on Linux OS

To store the metadata in a network attached storage (NAS), do the following:

Create a shared network folder.
On the Server in Linux OS, create the netdir folder. For example, in the /media folder:
```
sudo mkdir /media/netdir
```
Install the cifs-utils utility.
```
sudo apt-get install cifs-utils
```
Attach the shared network folder to the created netdir folder.
```
sudo mount -t cifs //IP-address/common /media/netdir -o user=User,password=123,uid=1001,gid=1002,vers=2.0
```
where,
1. IP-address − NAS address,
2. common − shared network folder,
3. user, password − NAS access credentials,
4. uid, gid − id of the user and ngp group; they can be obtained using the following command:
```
id ngp
```
In the Axxon One metadata storage settings, specify the /media/netdir path (see 시스템 로그 및 메타데이터 저장 구성).

After you restart Linux OS, the attached folder will be deleted. To configure the network folder to be attached on the OS loading, do the following:

Add the following string to the file:

//IP-address/common /media/netdir cifs user=User,password=123,uid=1001,gid=1002,vers=2.0 0 0
