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

  1. Create a shared network folder.

  2. On the Server in Linux OS, create the netdir folder. For example, in the /media folder:

    sudo mkdir /media/netdir

  3. Install the cifs-utils utility.

    sudo apt-get install cifs-utils

  4. 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
  5. In the Axxon One metadata storage settings, specify the /media/netdir path (see Configuring storage of the system log and metadata).

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:

  1. Open the /etc/fstab file.

    sudo nano /etc/fstab

  2. 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
  3. Save the file.
