- From the Spinup UI, request a S@Y share - this will open a ServiceNow ticket for the Storage team
- You should get notified via e-mail once the share is ready (takes about a day)
- You have to use CIFS (Samba) to mount the share on your server:
- On Linux servers
- Install cifs-utils
sudo yum install -y cifs-utils
- Mount the share using your AD credentials, e.g.
sudo mount.cifs //storage.yale.edu/home/YXNAT-CC1000-SSPS-AHEF /mnt -v -o vers=3.0,domain=yale,username=netid
- If you need to make it persistent and mount at boot time, you can add an entry to your /etc/fstab file
- Install cifs-utils
- On Windows servers
- Attach as you would a regular Windows share
- On Linux servers
Important: If you're using Docker on your Spinup server you may run into weird network problems when connecting to Storage @ Yale. This is because the storage uses IPs on the 172.18.0.0/16 subnet and docker by default tries to use that same subnet. You can check this by running ifconfig and inspecting the network interfaces that are in use - if any of them use 172.18 that's a problem. You can override the default behavior of Docker so it uses a different subnet.
