Folder management
Volumes and folders on any system are used to organize data. Regardless of system size,
systematic structuring and naming conventions of volumes and folders eases the administrative
burden. Moving from volumes to folders to shares increases the level of granularity of the types
of data stored in the unit and the level of security access allowed.
Folders can be managed using Server Manager. Tasks include:
• Accessing a specific volume or folder
• Creating a new folder
• Deleting a folder
• Modifying folder properties
• Creating a new share for a volume or folder
• Managing shares for a volume or folder
Managing file-level permissions
Security at the file level is managed using Windows Explorer.
File level security includes settings for permissions, ownership, and auditing for individual files.
To enter file permissions:
1. Using Windows Explorer, access the folder or file that needs to be changed, and then
right-click the folder.
2. Click Properties, and then click the Security tab.
