Openfiler converts an industry standard x86_64 architecture system into a full-fledged NAS/SAN appliance or IP storage gateway and provides storage administrators with a powerful tool to cope with burgeoning storage needs.?

Openfiler ensures that storage administrators are able to make the best use of system performance and storage capacity resources when allocating and managing storage in a multi-platform network.

Openfiler?provides key features such as iSCSI target for virtualization, Fibre Channel target support, block level replication and High Availabilty that are the mainstay of any business critical storage environment.?

Openfiler addresses all the key data storage concerns:

• Reliability?- Openfiler supports both software and hardware RAID with monitoring and alert facilities; volume snapshot and recovery

• Availability?- Openfiler supports active/passive high availability clustering, MPIO, and block level replication

• Performance?- Linux 2.6 kernel supports the latest CPU, networking and storage hardware

• Scalability?- filesystem scalability to 60TB+, online filesystem and volume growth support

Deployment Scenarios

The range of storage networking protocols provided by Openfiler makes it an excellent choice for several deployment scenarios:

storage area networkingnetwork attached storage

IP Storage Gateway Disk-to-disk Backup Video Surveillance Oracle 10g raw volume Virtual Machine migration Continuous Data Protection	Heterogeneous File Sharing Exchange Server backend Virtual Machine storage backend Network User home directories Media archiving

我們在虛擬機中測試，Vmvare workstation中建立一個新的虛擬機。

安裝步驟如下：

first boot,press enter key to install.

language: 選擇英文

提示硬盤中數據會全部丟失，點 Yes 。

因為我們是裝在Vmvare workstation中的，所以硬盤為虛擬的sda ATA VMware Virtual I

IP地址我們為默認DHCP。

時區調成東8北京即可以。

setting root password.

安裝過程：

安裝完成，重啟。

last step, finish install.

以下為正常啟動好的界面。

log on web interface: https://192.168.23.158:446

用戶名為openfiler,密碼默認為openfiler

登陸進系統以后的主界面。

create VG(volume Groups),新建卷組。

新建分區。

發現可以開啟好多服務：

NFS,iSCSI，FTP，UPS等好多功能都可以用在學習XenServer中。

last import step: ?

最后就是如何連到XenServer或者Hyper-v,Vmvare esxi中，

我這里講一下如何connect to XenServer 6.5 enterpise edition

create "SR" in XenCenter"
