I would like to check if data at rest encryption is turned on in my Isilon cluster.

From what I have read Isilon does it automatically with the use of SED (Self encrypting drives).

Is my understanding correct?

And how can I check if the drives on my system are self encrytping?

 

Also if we setup cloudpools then how can we make sure that data will be encrypted on the cloudpool side as well?

I need suggestions on advantages and disadvantages of moving our file server to the Cloud.

We use a network drive (about 20 users, approximately 10 concurrently) basically as a file server. Each workstation has a Drive C containing Office 365, a couple of accounting programs and various utility programs. All billing, correspondence, data, reports and spreadsheets are stored on Drive F (ie, the server, approximately 50GB). Most of the current work files are within a  single directory on the file server. That directory is shared, via ShareFile, is about 30GB. There are 5 or 6 employees who are running ShareFile on the laptops who access that directory via ShareFile.

Sharefile does funny things to the file permission settings that I do not quite understand. Even though a file IS NOT marked READ ONLY, once ShareFile shares the file, it is READ ONLY. Although annoying, it is workable. I would like to move the 30GB shared directory, or for that matter the entire 50GB file server directory to the Cloud. That way users are the office or those working via laptop would have access to the same files.

I assume this is possible. Is it advisable? The advantages are obvious, but what are the disadvantages? Costs? File Conflicts? Speed?

Dear Experts,

I am a novice when it comes to cloud storage.  My company is looking to move to a cloud storage platform; so, I have been doing some research on it and I am confused to how exactly does cloud storage work.  So I need help in explaining to me how cloud storage works.

I am very familiar of how things work on our internal storage environment.  If we have a hypothetical department that has 4 employees (Dave, Gary, Matt, Zach); each employee would get their own personal slice of the home drive to keep their own personal data and no one has access to their personal data, except them (and quite possibly the system administrator).  Then there would be a shared drive, separate from the home drive, that they can share documents to others within the department or perhaps outside of the department.

Now, how would the above scenario work if my company moves from an internal storage environment to a cloud storage environment?  In the research I have done so far, I am familiar that each of the above 4 employees would receive their personal cloud storage account that has a storage limit (500GB, 1TB, 2TB, etc...) assigned to it, based on a subscription plan.  However, I am not understanding, how would they share documents with others in the department or even outside of the department?

Any help, tidbit, advice, suggestion would be very much appreciated.  Also, if you have a certain/specific/recommended cloud storage site you would recommend, please do so.  I am …

Can a OneDrive for Business Deployment be "pre-configured" for win10 users?  

On our win10 clients, OneDrive is in the system tray as a white cloud "OneDrive not signed in".

We want to "auto-configure" it as much as possible.

The extent of what I've been able to accomplish is pre-filling the email address on the "Setup OneDrive" screen via a URL where the email address is the parameter.

I keep seeing references to the same KB article:
https://support.office.com/en-us/article/deploy-the-new-onedrive-sync-client-in-an-enterprise-environment-3f3a511c-30c6-404a-98bf-76f95c519668

It mentions the pre-filling email address thing and also auto-syncing a sharepoint library but we don't have a sharepoint library.

We simply want to deploy onedrive as seamlessly as possible so we can do away with "U:" personal file server space and let people store their personal files in OneDrive.

Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

We would like to be able to enforce our school policies, will filter web content, and be able to control their internet access (to limit their access so they dont stay too much time. Can anyone propose any solutions?

Thank you

Hi

I've asked this question on the dropbox forum but not much response, so hoping someone here may be able to offer some insight.

I would very much like to understand more about what happens with Dropbox when the desktop application encounters a missing root Dropbox directory (using Windows 10 if that is pertinent but my query is about general Dropbox behaviour)

This could happen if one were to install Dropbox - against adivice from Dropbox - onto an external drive.
But this could also happen if for instance the Dropbox root folder on an internal disk were moved or deleted, perhaps accidentally.
(Note I'm not talking about deleting files inside the dropbox root folder - which would of course sync and remove them in the cloud. I'm specifically talking about the whole folder being missing, not just the contents thereof)

Is it true that if the Dropbox application cannot find the root dropbox folder - then it will delete all the files in the Dropbox?

First I would like to be sure that I have understood this correctly, and then if so, I am wondering why this apparently strange design choice has been made?

Many thanks for any input or clarification!

how can I place a key in a AWS RHEL instacne with "user data"

is it possible to create a "here" script and have it execute on AWS instance "user data"?

like this

#!/usr/bin/env bash
mkdir -p /home/ec2-user/.ssh
cat <<EOF >  /home/ec2-user/.ssh/docker-master-key.pem
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
...
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
EOF

I want to be able to pass a key to an instance upon boot, I have used just this above and it does not seem to do anything at all , I can not find any errors , how can I find out logging from this user data ?

thanks
