Table 27 Storage Unit page settings (continued)
Item Description
l
User role : Lets you monitor systems and change your
own password.
l
Security role : In addition to user role privileges, lets you
set up security-officer configurations and manage other
security-officer operators.
l
Backup-operator role : In addition to user role privileges,
lets you create snapshots, import and export tapes to, or
move tapes within a DD VTL.
l
None role : Intended only for DD Boost authentication, so
you cannot monitor or configure a system. None is also
the parent role for the SMT tenant-admin and tenant-
user roles. None is also the preferred user type for DD
Boost storage owners. Creating a new local user here
only allows that user to have the "none" role.
DD Boost Protocol Fibre Channel page
The Fibre Channel page enables you to configure DD Boost Access Groups over Fibre Channel.
To configure these settings outside of the configuration wizard, select Protocols > DD Boost >
Fibre Channel > + (plus sign) to add an access group, the pencil to modify an access group, or X
to delete an access group.

Configure DD Boost over Fibre
Channel
Select the checkbox if you want to configure DD Boost over
Fibre Channel.
Group Name (1-128 Chars) Create an Access Group. Enter a unique name. Duplicate
access groups are not supported.
Initiators Select one or more initiators. Optionally, replace the initiator
name by entering a new one. An initiator is a backup client
that connects to the system to read and write data using the
FC (Fibre Channel) protocol. A specific initiator can support
DD Boost over FC or DD VTL, but not both.
Devices The devices to be used are listed. They are available on all
endpoints. An endpoint is the logical target on the Data
Domain or PowerProtect system to which the initiator
connects.
CIFS protocol
The CIFS Protocol settings section enables you to configure the CIFS protocol settings. Click Yes
to configure the CIFS protocol settings, or click No to skip CIFS configuration.
The system uses the term MTree to describe directories. When you configure a directory path, DD
OS creates an MTree where the data will reside.
