The Net-Storage connection must be configured on both the net server and the net client.
The net server's system administrator must assign the directory which has been released for mounting to a user with UserID and GroupID (owner). This user has authorization to access the released directory.
Detailed information on this topic can be found in the configuration description of the net server.
Write authorization is always required for BS2000 access.
The instance tasked by BS2000 to access the directory released in the net server is the bs2netsagent in the net client.
The SE server's administrator must use the SE Manager on the net client to set the access authorization (user ID and group ID) of the bs2netsagent so that the net server permits access to the released directory. Detailed information on this is provided in the “Operation and Administration” manual [57].
As the bs2netsagent can only be assigned one UserID and GroupID, on the net servers this one UserID and GroupID must be assigned to all directories released for this net client.
When implementing maintenance work (e.g. software update or reinstallation) and configuration changes, make absolutely certain that Net-Storage which is operated via the net client concerned is beforehand disconnected from all connected BS2000 systems using UMOUNT-NET-STORAGE.
