Introduction

B Configuring an NFS Share For Archival

This chapter provides information about configuring a Network File System (NFS) share for archival.

To configure archival to an NFS share:

Once the NFS filesystem is properly being exported by the server, you may try mounting the share to the client host using the following command: object.
```
mount -t nfs -o rw,nosuid <nfs_host_name>:<nfs_mount_path> /opt/isr/
ArchivedRecordings" e.g. mount -t nfs -o rw,nosuid host01.mydoc.com:/usr/
local/apps /opt/isr/ArchivedRecordings
```
Note:
You may need to install the nfs-utils package for mounting an NFS file system. For more information, refer to https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52668_01/E54669/html/ol7-cfgclnt-nfs.html.
For the mounted share to persist through reboots, you must edit the /etc/fstab file and add a line to the bottom with the following format:
```
<server>:</remote/export> </local/directory> <nfs-type> <options> 0 0
```
For example,
```
1.2.3.4:/mnt/nfs_share /opt/isr/ArchivedRecordings nfs defaults 0 0
```
Note:
Use the mount -a command to remount the filesystems and test your configuration.
From the RSS Linux shell, verify that users in the group "isr" have write permissions on the NFS share.
- Verify the current user is in the "isr" group (in the following example the user's name is "isradm").
```
#groups isradm
isradm: isradm wheel isr wireshark
```
- Add a file on the share.
```
touch /opt/isr/ArchivedRecordings/foo.txt
```
- Verify that the file exists
```
ls -l/opt/isr/ArchivedRecordings/foo.txt
```
From the RSS Linux shell, using the systemctl restart tomcatd command, restart Tomcat. Since the Archived Location was not available as a resource to the application server responsible for serving recordings previously, this is necessary.
From the ISR Dashboard, add the new Archival Location.
- Click the Admin tab.
- Click the Manage Sites link.
- Click on the displayed Site.
- Click on the Locations icon.
- Click the Create link.
- name—Enter a specific name for the Location.
- Recordings Directory—Set the recordings directory path to /opt/isr/ArchivedRecordings.
- URL—Set the URL serving recordings in the directory (this is likely to be http://<RSS IP>/ArchivedRecording).
- IP Address—Specify the RSS IP address for conversion to play recordings using certain codecs.
- Click Create.
From the ISR Dashboard, configure Archival to the Location.
- Click the Admin tab.
- Click the Manage Sites link.
- Click on the displayed Site.
- Click on the Archivers icon.
- Click the Create link.
- IP Address—Enter the RSS IP address.
- Source Location—Set to <RSS name> (<RSS IP>) Primary.
- Destination Location—Set to the name you gave the Location.
- Click Create.
  
  For more information on advanced settings while configuring a new Archiver, see Managing Archivers in the Oracle Communications Interactive Session Recorder Administrator Guide.
From the ISR Dashboard, verify that Archival is configured properly.
- Click on the Recordings tab.
- Click on a recording to display the details.
- Click the File Location tab and verify that the recording was archived in the Archival Remarks field.
  
  Note:
  By default, the Archival process runs every two minutes and you must wait for it to run at its scheduled time.
