Configure Network & Storage
INNORIX requires a properly configured network and storage environment to ensure stable operation in large-scale file Transfer environments.
This section describes the network environment, firewall configuration, file storage, and persistent storage required for operating the INNORIX service.
Configure the Network
INNORIX requires a stable network environment for file Transfer between servers and user access.
Configure either an internal or external network environment according to your deployment environment.
Network Configuration Items
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Server IP | IP address of the server where INNORIX is installed |
| Network Interface | Network interface used by the service |
| DNS | Server address mapping when using a domain |
| Routing | Communication path to the target systems for Transfer |
Network Verification
Verify the following items before installation.
- Verify connectivity between the INNORIX server and the target systems.
- Verify that the server IP address is configured correctly.
- Verify network latency and packet loss.
- Verify access to external repositories and the Docker environment.
To ensure stable file Transfer performance, provide sufficient network bandwidth for the file Transfer environment.
Configure the Firewall
Configure the server and network firewall policies required to operate the INNORIX service.
Verify the following firewall environment.
- Linux OS firewall configuration
- Internal network firewall policies
- Security appliance access policies
- Cloud environment security group configuration
Firewall Configuration Items
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Inbound Rule | Policy for inbound access to the INNORIX server |
| Outbound Rule | Policy for outbound communication from the INNORIX server to external systems |
| Service Port | Port used for the Web Console and file Transfer service |
If the required ports are blocked, access to the Web Console or file Transfer functionality may not operate correctly.
Configure File Storage
INNORIX uses an in-memory file Transfer method and therefore does not require a separate workspace for temporarily storing files during Transfer.
Storage is used to store configuration information, logs, and service data required for system operation.
File Storage Recommendations
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Storage Capacity | Ensure sufficient storage capacity for system operation data |
| Disk Performance | Ensure stable read/write performance for operational data and logs |
| Access Permission | Configure permissions to allow the INNORIX service to access the storage |
| Backup | Apply a backup policy to protect system configuration and operational data |
Storage Considerations
- Allocate sufficient storage space for system operation data and logs.
- It is recommended to store operational data on reliable Persistent Storage.
- Back up system configuration information and log data regularly.
- Monitor disk usage periodically to maintain stable service operation.
Configure Persistent Storage
In a Docker Container environment, configure Persistent Storage to ensure that data is retained when Containers are removed or recreated.
Use Docker Volumes or Bind Mounts to preserve service data.
Persistent Storage Targets
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Service Configuration | INNORIX service configuration data |
| System Data | System operational data |
| Log Data | Service log data |
| File Data | Storage area for transferred files |
