Enabling offboard storage

Enabling offboard storage

You can move the data stored on the physical appliance to an external Network Attached Storage (NAS) device to free up disk space on the appliance. You can also move the data stored on a virtual appliance or a Remote Site Appliance (RSA) to an additional virtual disk.

Enabling offboard storage copies all the data from the internal drive, such as images, pre-installation and post-installation tasks, user profiles, source media, boot environments, and drivers to the offboard storage device. Although the data remains on the appliance, deployment activity points to the offboard storage device.

You can migrate data stored on an offboard storage device back to the appliance or RSA if the data does not exceed the onboard storage capacity.

Add a virtual disk for offboard storage

Add a virtual disk for offboard storage

You can add a virtual disk to migrate data stored on a virtual KACE Systems Deployment Appliance or on a Remote Site Appliance (RSA) to an additional virtual disk to free up disk space.

Configuring a virtual disk for your KACE Systems Deployment Appliance or RSA requires the following:

1.
On the left navigation pane, click Settings > Control Panel to display the Control Panel, then click Data Storage to display the Data Storage page.
2.
Click Change to offboard storage to display the Data Storage Configuration.
3.
Click Verify device.
4.
Click Migrate to copy the data to offboard storage.
If you encounter any errors, click Settings to expand the section, then click Appliance Logs to display the Appliance Logs page, and select Data Storage Configuration logs.

Revert offboard data to onboard storage

Revert offboard data to onboard storage

You can migrate data stored on an offboard storage device back to the appliance or RSA as long as the data does not exceed the onboard storage capacity. The appliance verifies whether it has enough space for the data. If the data on the device exceeds the available space on the appliance, the offboard data is not migrated.

For information on the appliance data storage capacity, go to http://documents.quest.com/kace-systems-deployment-appliance/technical-specifications-for-virtual-appliances/.

1.
On the left navigation pane, click Settings > Control Panel to display the Control Panel, then click Data Storage to display the Data Storage page.
2.
Click Change to offboard storage to display the Data Storage Configuration wizard.
a.
Click Revert to original data that was on the appliance before migrating to offboard storage. Any new data stored on the offboard-storage device after migrating the onboard data to the offboard storage will be lost.
b.
Click Next and select Yes, revert to onboard storage.
a.
Click Copy data from offboard storage to the appliance.
b.
Click Verify storage space.
c.
Click Migrate.
a.
On the left navigation pane, click Deployments, and click Remote Sites to display the Remote Site Appliance page.
b.
Select the RSA, then select Choose Action > Sync.

Configure an off-board storage device

Configure an off-board storage device

You can add an external Network Attached Storage (NAS) device to migrate data stored on a physical appliance to free up disk space on the appliance. When you migrate the data to an offboard storage device, the data stored on the appliance is no longer accessible.

Go to the http://www.itninja.com/community/dell-kace-k2000-deployment-appliance website for device-specific configuration instructions that are not available from the appliance.

1.
On the left navigation pane, click Settings > Control Panel to display the Control Panel, then click Data Storage to display the Data Storage page.
2.
Click Change to offboard storage to display the Data Storage Configuration wizard.
4.
In Address, type the host name or the IP address of the offboard-storage device.
In Share Path, type the full path of the share configured on the offboard-storage device.
5.
The appliance checks whether the device is reachable and configurable. Show details displays the status of the verification.
6.
Click Migrate to copy the data to offboard storage.
If you encounter any errors, click Settings to expand the section, then click Appliance Logs to display the Appliance Logs page, and select Data Storage Configuration logs.
