Creating shares for VOB and view storage

You must create one or more Samba shares to hold server storage locations or individual VOB or view storage directories. To create a Samba share:

  1. Click the SHARES icon at the top of the SWAT interface home page.
  2. Enter a name for the share in the field to the right of the Create Share button. To simplify administration, the share name should be similar to that of the directory on Linux® or the UNIX® system whose name you enter in Step 4.
  3. Click Create Share.
  4. Edit the path option under Base Options. Set its value to be a directory under which the VOB or view storage areas reside. The VOB or view storage areas do not need to be in the directory specified, but they must be somewhere below the specified directory.
  5. Click Commit Changes.
