Introduction

...

You can request and mount a S@Y share on your Spinup secure server.

Note

If using Docker on your Spinup server, you might face network issues connecting to Storage@Yale due to IP conflicts in the 172.18.0.0/16 subnet. Check active subnets with ifconfig. To resolve, configure Docker to use a different subnet.

  • From the Spinup UI, request a S@Y share - this will open a ServiceNow ticket for the Storage team

    • In the Configuration section make sure you check "This share will contain High Risk Data"

    • This will force the Permissions Model to "Base"

    • You need to use CIFS protocol to mount the share on Linux (NFS is not supported for secure shares)

  • Once you submit the request it will open a ServiceNow ticket that you can track via ServiceNow

    • You should get notified via e-mail once the share is ready (takes about a day)

  • When the share is ready you can mount it on your linux server:

    • Install cifs-utils

      Code Block
      languagebash
      sudo yum install -y cifs-utils
    • Mount the share using your AD credentials, e.g.

      Code Block
      languagebash
      sudo mount.cifs //storage.yale.edu/home/YXNAT-CC1000-SSPS-AHEF /mnt -v -o vers=3.0,domain=yale,username=netid
      • To ensure the share mounts automatically at boot, add an entry to your /etc/fstab file.

    • Windows servers:

      • Attach the share as you would with any regular Windows network share.
