Completing system configuration
After the storage server is physically set up a nd the basic con figuration is established, additional setup
tasks must be completed. Depending on the deployment scenario of the storage server, these steps can
vary. T
hese additional steps can include:
• Running Microsoft Windows Update—HP highly recommends that you run Microsoft Windows
updates to identify, review, and install the latest, applicable, critical security updates on the storage
server. For recommendations, instructions, and documentation to help manage the software
update, hotfix, and security patches process on the storage ser ver, see Microsoft Software Updates
on HP ProLiant Storage Servers at h
ttp://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/storageservers.html.
• Creating and m anaging users and groups—User and group information and permissions
determine whether a user c an access files. If the storage server is deployed into a workgroup
enviro nm ent, this user and group information is stored locally on the device. By contrast, if the
storage server is de ployed into a domain environment, user and group information is stored
on
the domain.
• Joining workgroup and domains—These are the two system environments for users and groups.
Because users and groups in a domain environment are managed through standard Windows or
Ac
tive Directory domain adm inistration methods, this document discusses only local users and
