Dell FluidFS NAS Solutions Administrator's Guide

Create five NAS volumes based on the departments. The administrator logically breaks up the storage and the management into functional groups. In this scenario, the departmental requirements are quite different and supports the design to logically create NAS volumes along department lines.

This solution provides the following advantages:

• It is logically easy to manage the NAS volumes.
• The NAS volumes are created to match the exact needs of the department.

The disadvantage of this option is that the NAS volumes become difficult to manage if the number of departments in the organization increases.
