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.

Power off the appliance, add the virtual disk, and then power on the appliance.

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

•
Ensuring that the virtual disk capacity is at least 250GB. You cannot use a virtual disk with less storage capacity than the KACE Systems Deployment Appliance or RSA onboard storage. For example, if you have 250GB of onboard data, the virtual disk must have more than 250GB of available storage.
•
Planning for your data migration because it can take several hours depending on the amount of data and the network speed. The KACE Systems Deployment Appliance or RSA is unavailable during migration.
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.
* 
•
If the virtual disk is not added or connected properly, you cannot perform the data migration.
•
If there is more than one virtual disk connected, remove the additional virtual disks so that there is only one virtual disk connected. Restart the procedure to return to the Data Storage Configuration page.
3.
Click Verify device.
The KACE Systems Deployment Appliance starts checking whether it can be reached and configured. Show Details displays the status of the verification.
4.
Click Migrate to copy the data to offboard storage.
The progress bar displays the status.
5.
After the migration completes, click Close.
6.
Verify that the storage type is changed.
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.
3.
Do one of the following to revert offboard data back to onboard storage:
◦
Added new data to the offboard-storage device:
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.
◦
No new data added data to the offboard-storage device:
a.
Click Copy data from offboard storage to the appliance.
b.
Click Verify storage space.
After the appliance verifies whether it has enough space to accept the data from the device, confirm that you want to continue the migration.
c.
Click Migrate.
◦
If you are migrating RSA data to a virtual disk, synchronize the RSA with the appliance before migrating the data to the virtual disk.  
* 
NOTE: The RSA becomes inaccessible when you reboot the RSA during reverse migration from offboard to onboard storage.
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.

Plan your data migration because it can take several hours depending on the amount of data and the network speed. During migration, the appliance is not 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.
3.
Select the storage device for the appliance.
Ensure that the device storage capacity is at least 250GB. An offboard-storage device cannot have less storage capacity than the appliance onboard storage. For example, if you have 250GB of onboard data, the offboard-storage device must have more than 250GB of available storage.
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.
Configure the device settings, then click Verify device settings.
Read the device instructions and verify that you have properly configured the settings listed for the offboard-storage device. Use a private network and if possible, restrict access by IP address to prevent security vulnerabilities.
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.
The progress bar displays the status.
7.
After the migration completes, click Close.
8.
Verify that the storage type is changed.
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.
