This topic describes how to manage shares in the Cloud Storage Gateway (CSG) console. You can create, delete, and configure Network File System (NFS) and Server Message Block (SMB) shares.
Prerequisites
- A gateway is created. For more information, see Create a file gateway.
- A cache disk is added to the gateway. For more information, see Add a cache disk.
- An Object Storage Service (OSS) bucket is created. For more information, see Create buckets.
Note
- CSG supports Standard, Infrequent Access (IA), and Archive OSS buckets.
- If you request to read an archived file from a gateway for which the archive feature is disabled, the system sends a request to restore the file at the same time. No error message is returned. However, latency may exist before you can read the archived file.
