kandi X-RAY | check_thecus_nas Summary
This plugin can check the health and status of a Thecus NAS device by querying the Web UI (User Interface) of the NAS. It has been developed and tested against. It can check and report CPU usage, system- and CPU-fans, RAID status, available disk space, disk health (bad-sectors) and disk temperature. The Thecus NAS device has (or at least some have) the option to enable and read out SNMP, but this option gives far less information than what can be seen in (and retrieved from) the management user-interface. This check gets its information from this management user-interface through a series of http-requests which return information in json-format. Basing a check on a user-interface is generally not a good idea because user-interfaces are not guaranteed to be the same between different Thecus models and even firmware versions of the same model. This is however the only way to extract extra information like raid-status, drive temperatures and failures.

QUESTION
In the API docs about kedro.io
and kedro.contrib.io
I could not find info about how to read/write data from/to network attached storage such as e.g. FritzBox NAS.
ANSWER
Answered 2020-May-14 at 09:24So I'm a little rusty on network attached storage, but:
If you can mount your network attached storage onto your OS and access it like a regular folder, then it's just a matter of providing the right
filepath
when writing the config for a given catalog entry. See for example: Using Python, how can I access a shared folder on windows network?Otherwise, if accessing the network attached storage requires anything special, you might want to create a custom dataset that uses a Python library for interfacing with your network attached storage. Something like pysmb comes to mind.
The custom dataset could borrow heavily from the logic in existing kedro.io
or kedro.extras.datasets
datasets, but you replace the filepath/fsspec handling code with pysmb
instead.
QUESTION
I am currently kind of having trouble to understand between NAS and SAN.
As far as I figured out, NAS and SAN are kind of defined as below.
NAS(Network attached storage)
- Usually used as file storage and use Ethernet Infrastructure to communicate
- As file storage, support protocols like NFS, CIFS, SMB, HTTP(S)
SAN(Storage Area Network)
- Network Protocol to communicate with block storage for data access.
- Configured with separated network system
- Commonly based on Fibre Channel(FC) technology.
- Could use iSCSI(in small and medium sized business) or FCoE for less expensive alternative to FC
So, below is my questions.
1. Is File Storage and Block Storage are the solutions? I researched and found that NAS is File Storage Solution and SAN Storage is Block Storage Solution.
- In that case, are their base infrastructure(storage device) same? Only different with protocols, network devices, may be storage os something that controls underline device and way of usage?
2. I found there are NAS Solutions that support iSCSI. But I found that iSCSI is SCSI Protocol that use TCP/IP Network system and SCSI is for block level storage communication protocols.
- And Now I am confused. NAS is a file storage solution and how could that support iSCSI Protocol?
3. Are AWS root disk and EBS storage SAN Storage?
- I read that SAN Storage configuration could be expensive so iSCSI or FCoE are less expensive way to configure.
- With what technology AWS storage Infrastructure is configured??
I am kind of newly studying of these storage part computer science and got some questions.
Is there anyone can explain those questions clearly?
Thank you.

Answered 2020-Apr-07 at 09:44It depends on what you call a "Solution". The basic infrastructure is the same it's a some kind of a "storage server" (storage system) with physical disk(s), but it very much dependent of technologies, vendors and various options. Typically, a storage system provides access to its physical disks with different protocols of 2 main groups: block-level protocols like SCSI or rarely ATA on one hand, or file-level protocols like NFS, CIFS, etc on the other. It doesn't mean, a storage system can't work in both, block and file modes.
Storage network - SAN can be build over FC, FCoE, converged infrastructure, pure TCP/IP for iSCSI, Infiniband or any other infrastructure. Typically, when people say "SAN" they mean Block storage devices and FC protocol, but it doesn't mean, that a file storage - NAS can't be connected with SAN and vice verse.
