Managing file systems

The File Systems resource controls the files and directories in your Novera EPIC environment. Using the file systems, you can specify which directories and files a user can access. You can also define file systems for any directory accessible by any Novera EPIC Kernel in the environment. You can assign up to 10 file system attributes to each login.

To create a file system

1. On the Resources page, click the File Systems icon.

2. In the Resource menu, click Create New Resource Instance.

3. On the General property sheet, type a name in the File System Name box.

4. Type a directory path into the Root Directory box.

5. Type a kernel name in the Kernel box.

6. Type a service name in the Service Name box.

7. Enable the Persistence check box. If Persistence is enabled, the printer removes active or available to others after the invoking daemon has stopped.

To delete a file system

1. On the Resources page, double-click the File Systems icon.

2. Click the file you wish to delete.

3. In the Resource menu, click Delete Resource Instance.
