We have a similar problem. 2 840's, a terrabyte of drives and a pretty cabinet. No CIFS license.

But we aren't using the filer as a door stopper!

iSCSI licenses are not free!
They are only free to customers who have licensed a NAS protocol (CIFS or NFS).
Evidenced by the fact that you must log into the NOW site to get the iSCSI license key....

is it licensed? without an nfs or cifs license, your not going to be able to export anything or make any available shares.
type 'license' on the console to see

We have just received in donation a couple of FC9 shelves.
I found a F720 on ebay for cheap and now I am attempting to start
the things.
I have got the units attached via the FC cable and booted to the 2
floppy disks provided but I can not seem to attach to the hidden share from my windows PC or mount the file system from a linux box. Am I missing something vital.
I have also received all sorts of documentation that appears to be
no help.
thanks in advance, Basil Istwany
