Use Ubuntu to present your SAN to the network

Use Ubuntu to present your SAN to the network


I've recently been working on a way to improve our backup procedures. We back up to the network initially and I had been doing this using windows backup to a network drive.

This does work: but it slow and unreliable: so I decided that a good way forward would be to present the drive to the file server locally via a SAN.
