INTRODUCTION
openmediavault is the next generation network attached
storage (NAS) solution based on Debian Linux. It
contains services like SSH, (S)FTP, SMB/CIFS, DAAP
media server, RSync, BitTorrent client and many more.
Thanks to the modular design of the framework it can be
enhanced via plugins.
openmediavault is primarily designed to be used in small
offices or home offices, but is not limited to those
scenarios. It is a simple and easy to use out-of-the-box
solution that will allow everyone to install and administrate
a Network Attached Storage without deeper knowledge.

A computer network can be described as a system of
interconnected devices that can communicate using some
common standards (called protocols). These devices
communicate to exchange resources (e.g., files and printers)
and services.
Here is an example network consisting of two computers
connected together:
In the example above, the two computers are directly connected
using a cable. This small network can be used to exchange data
between just these two computers.
What if we want to expand our network? Then we can use a
network device, either a switch or a hub, to connect more than
two computers together:
Now all of the devices on the network can communicate with each
other.
What is a network?

There are various types of Computer Networking options
available. The classification of network in computers can be
done according to their size as well as their purpose.
The size of a network should be expressed by the geographic
area and number of computers, which are a part of their
networks. It includes devices housed in a single room to
millions of devices spread across the world. Following are the
popular types of Computer Network:
What is PAN (Personal Area Network)?
PAN (Personal Area Network) is a computer network formed
around a person. It generally consists of a computer, mobile, or
personal digital assistant. PAN can be used for establishing
communication among these personal devices for connecting to
a digital network and the internet.
Types of Networks
?

Characteristics of PAN
Below are the main characteristics of PAN:
It is mostly personal devices network equipped within a limited
area.
Allows you to handle the interconnection of IT devices at the
surrounding of a single user.
PAN includes mobile devices, tablet, and laptop.
It can be wirelessly connected to the internet called WPAN.
Appliances use for PAN: cordless mice, keyboards, and
Bluetooth systems.
Advantages of PAN
Here are the important pros/benefits of PAN network:
PAN networks are relatively secure and safe
It offers only short-range solution up to ten meters
Strictly restricted to a small area
Disadvantages of PAN
Here are the cons/drawbacks of using PAN network:
It may establish a bad connection to other networks at the same
radio bands.
Distance limits.

What is a LAN (Local Area Network)?
A Local Area Network (LAN) is a group of computer and
peripheral devices which are connected in a limited area such
as school, laboratory, home, and office building. It is a widely
useful network for sharing resources like files, printers, games,
and other application. The simplest type of LAN network is to
connect computers and a printer in someone’s home or office.
In general, LAN will be used as one type of transmission
medium. It is a network which consists of less than 5000
interconnected devices across several buildings
.

Characteristics of LAN
Here are the important characteristics of a LAN network:
It is a private network, so an outside regulatory body never
controls it.
LAN operates at a relatively higher speed compared to other
WAN systems.
There are various kinds of media access control methods like
token ring and ethernet.
Advantages of LAN
Here are the pros/benefits of LAN:
Computer resources like hard-disks, DVD-ROM, and printers
can share local area networks. This significantly reduces the
cost of hardware purchases.
You can use the same software over the network instead of
purchasing the licensed software for each client in the network.
Data of all network users can be stored on a single hard disk of
the server computer.
You can easily transfer data and messages over networked
computers.
It will be easy to manage data at only one place, which makes
data more secure.
Local Area Network offers the facility to share a single internet
connection among all the LAN users.

Disadvantages of LAN
Here are the cons/drawbacks of LAN:
LAN will indeed save cost because of shared computer
resources, but the initial cost of installing Local Area Networks
is quite high.
The LAN admin can check personal data files of every LAN user,
so it does not offer good privacy.
Unauthorized users can access critical data of an organization
in case LAN admin is not able to secure centralized data
repository.
Local Area Network requires a constant LAN administration as
there are issues related to software setup and hardware
failures

What is WAN ( Wide Area Network ) ?
WAN (Wide Area Network) is another important computer
network that which is spread across a large geographical area.
WAN network system could be a connection of a LAN which
connects with other LAN’s using telephone lines and radio
waves. It is mostly limited to an enterprise or an organization.

Characteristics of WAN
Below are the characteristics of WAN:
• The software files will be shared among all the users;
therefore, all can access to the latest files.
• Any organization can form its global integrated network
using WAN.
Advantages of WAN
Here are the benefits/pros of WAN:
• WAN helps you to cover a larger geographical area.
Therefore, business offices situated at longer distances
can easily communicate.
• Contains devices like mobile phones, laptop, tablet,
computers, gaming consoles, etc.
• WLAN connections work using radio transmitters and
receivers built into client devices.
Disadvantages of WAN
Here are the drawbacks/cons of WAN network:
• The initial setup cost of investment is very high.
• It is difficult to maintain the WAN network. You need skilled
technicians and network administrators.
• There are more errors and issues because of the wide
coverage and the use of different technologies.
• It requires more time to resolve issues because of the
involvement of multiple wired and wireless technologies.
• Offers lower security compared to other types of network
in computer.

What is MAN (Metropolitan Area Network)?
A Metropolitan Area Network or MAN is consisting of a
computer network across an entire city, college campus, or a
small region. This type of network is large than a LAN, which is
mostly limited to a single.
building or site. Depending upon the type of configuration, this
type of network allows you to cover an area from several miles
to tens of miles.

Here are important characteristics of the MAN network:
• It mostly covers towns and cities in a maximum 50 km range
• Mostly used medium is optical fibers, cables
• Data rates adequate for distributed computing applications.
Advantages of MAN
Here are the pros/benefits of MAN network:
• It offers fast communication using high-speed carriers,
like Fiber Optic Cables.
• It provides excellent support for an extensive size network
and greater access to WANs.
• The dual bus in MAN network provides support to transmit
data in both directions concurrently.
• A MAN network mostly includes some areas of a city or an
entire city.
Disadvantages of MAN
Here are drawbacks/cons of using the MAN network:
• You need more cable to establish MAN connection from
one place to another.
• In MAN network it is tough to make the system secure
from hackers
Characteristics of MAN

Type Of Material we are using
in this Project
❖Raspberry Pi
❖USB-C power supply unit (PSU)
❖MicroSD Card
❖Power USB hub
❖Ethernet Cable
❖External Storage
Choosing the right Raspberry Pi and
accessories
The faster your Raspberry Pi, the faster your data will save to
your external storage. For this reason, we recommend using a
Raspberry Pi 4 8GB, but any member of the Raspberry Pi 4
range should do the trick.
If you’re using a Raspberry Pi 4 or a Raspberry Pi 400, you will
need a USB-C power supply and a micro-HDMI-to-standard-
HDMI cable. Older models will require a micro USB power
supply and a standard-HDMI-to-HDMI cable instead.
Power supplies come in a variety of formats, and you may find
that an unofficial model such as a phone charger won’t be
powerful enough for your Raspberry Pi. For ease and reliability,
we offer affordable official USB-C and micro USB power
supplies in a variety of regional formats. If you plan to use your
own power supply.

Which Platform we are Using for
this Project
Though it is nearly 100% certain a Linux or Unix would suit such use case
best. It’s just a question of “which one”.
On a feature set level there’s hardly anything to choose. Effectively
everything possible on one is just as possible on another. In this case it’s
about the simplicity of getting any one / more features working.
For hardware compatibility there might be a few outliers. Perhaps some
can be made to run on any hardware, but there are a few already
available for basically anything.
As someone completely new to NAS. If there isn’t already an OS installed
on something like a pre-built NAS machine, then look towards an OS
specifically designed for purpose. I’d suggest either FreeNAS or Open
Media Vault, with OMV more broadly available to any hardware (FreeNAS
has minimum requirements which may not function on some).
These two are made by customizing FreeBSD (a Unix) and Debian (a
Linux) respectively. Both have pretty much the same feature set, with
some caveats. E.g., ZFS is default on FreeNAS, but an option only on OMV.
Merged file systems is relegated to command line on FreeNAS but a
point-n-click management on OMV.
There are likely other beginner friendly NAS operating systems available.
E.g., UnRAID is also a Linux with some proprietary stuff built in out the
box. Especially its ability to manage virtual machines is much further
ahead on user interaction ease than some others. And it effectively has
a pre-setup method to use something like merged disk spanning and
periodic parity drives.

Motive of this Project
NAS allows small and medium-sized businesses to get
all their data in one location, secure, and accessible from
anywhere. One of the biggest advantages of a NAS is that
it is multifunctional. Can be used for personal, at-home
office, for small and medium enterprises (small and
medium enterprises).
NAS has become very popular for home use to store
your photos, videos, music, and documents in one
central location and access them anytime, anywhere. For
the professional environment, NAS has become a data
storage asset. Based on employee credentials, the
company provides access to NAS devices for backup,
recovery, and access to sensitive data.

What is NAS Server?
Network-attached storage (NAS) is a file-level (as opposed
to block-level storage) computer data storage server
connected to a computer network providing data access to
a heterogeneous group of clients. The term "NAS" can refer
to both the technology and systems involved, or a
specialized device built for such functionality (as unlike
tangentially related technologies such as local area
networks, a NAS device is often a singular unit).
A NAS device is optimised for serving files either by its
hardware, software, or configuration. It is often
manufactured as a computer appliance – a purpose-built
specialized computer. NAS systems are networked
appliances that contain one or more storage drives, often
arranged into logical, redundant storage containers or RAID.
Network-attached storage typically provide access to files
using network file sharing protocols such as NFS, SMB, or
AFP. From the mid-1990s, NAS devices began gaining
popularity as a convenient method of sharing files among
multiple computers, as well as to remove the responsibility
of file serving from other servers on the network; by doing
so, a NAS can provide faster data access, easier
administration, and simpler configuration as opposed to
using general-purpose server to serve files.[1]

Accompanying a NAS are purpose-built hard disk drives,
which are functionally similar to non-NAS drives but may
have different firmware, vibration tolerance, or power
dissipation to make them more suitable for use in RAID
arrays, a technology often used in NAS implementations.[2]
For example, some NAS versions of drives support a
command extension to allow extended error recovery to be
disabled. In a non-RAID application, it may be important for
a disk drive to go to great lengths to successfully read a
problematic storage block, even if it takes several seconds.
In an appropriately configured RAID array, a single bad
block on a single drive can be recovered completely via the
redundancy encoded across the RAID set. If a drive spends
several seconds executing extensive retries it might cause
the RAID controller to flag the drive as "down" whereas if it
simply replied promptly that the block of data had a
checksum error, the RAID controller would use the
redundant data on the other drives to correct the error and
continue without any problem. Such a "NAS" SATA hard disk
drive can be used as an internal PC hard drive, without any
problems or adjustments needed, as it simply supports
additional options and may possibly be built to a higher
quality standard (particularly if accompanied by a higher
quoted MTBF figure and higher price) than a regular
consumer drive.

Pros and Cons of
NAS Server
Cloud Drive:
BENEFITS:
There is a greater accessibility of files because they can be
accessed anywhere in the world.
Compared to other methods, cloud drives are incredibly easy to
set up and to use.
No hardware costs. Yes, there are costs associated with the
size of the storage but in terms of larger setup costs with NAS
drives, cloud drives are incredibly cheap.
Another financial point is that most cloud drives operate on a
monthly subscription basis, meaning that for short term use it
works out much cheaper.
Cloud drives are much more flexible. The amount of space used
can be increased over time as needed, which can be correlated
with cost and spending.
One aspect that some worry about is the perceived
deterioration in the performance of remote data storage. In

reality, the difference is only marginal, and today the cloud
offers typically excellent service.
Lastly, it is possible to synchronize the accessibility to your
data.
NAS Drive:
BENEFITS:
A NAS drive does not connect through your computer, but
rather through your wireless router, meaning that multiple
devices can have access to the same files at the same time.
Greater customisation options than in other storage options.
For example, you can add more hard drives when needed
through configuration.
NAS drives can connect to multiple devices, not just computers.
Printers, USB cameras and tablets can also be connected.
It also gives you the possibility to pair multiple devices together,
which can greatly improve performance and efficiency
Most NAS devices allow you to access files from anywhere,
giving huge flexibility with remote access.
Though it is more expensive than cloud options, NAS servers
can be a cheap option when compared to larger servers. Entry-
level NAS Drives can be found for as low as £50
People like physicality. It is something that can be moved when
needed.
NAS drives operate through a centralised system, which
enables a direct point of contact. A fact that can greatly speed
up processes.
In terms of a large amount of space for long term use, NAS
Drives probably work out at the cheapest option.

Lastly, it provides the option for multiple clients to access the
same files on the same network.
NEGATIVES:
NAS Drives use the file system Linux, so after machine failure,
or power outages you will need professional software for the
data recovery.
End users who need to back up their data need to do it through
an installed operating system
NAS drives are highly dependent on bandwidth available. In the
wrong kind of circumstances, the whole system can run
incredibly slowly.
It also consumes a large amount of bandwidth on the network,
which can hamper the performance of computers attached to it.
While the physicality can be a plus, it does mean it lacks the
physical security against theft or damage. A problem not
experienced with the cloud.
It’s only used for storage so does carry a limited use.

How Does NAS Server Work?
Your computer will read data from and write (store data) to DAS
devices faster than network devices. Depending on the size of
your files and what you’re trying to do, you may notice a
difference.
Editing large photos or videos, working with complex design
documents, or transferring very large files are examples when
using DAS is generally advantageous.
While NAS read/write performance isn’t as fast as DAS external
storage, NAS devices are more sophisticated than DAS.
To support the variety of ways people want to use network-
attached storage, NAS devices have several components
integrated into their architectures:
▪ Storage. Usually, with hard disk drives, the primary
function of a NAS device is to store your files. The most
popular NAS devices for home office, small business, or
enterprise workgroup contain two to five hard drives.
While multiple hard drives clearly provide more capacity
than a single hard drive, they can also provide redundancy
and faster file access and storage times. NAS
devices typically use a special NAS category of 3.5-inch

hard drives that stand up to the requirements of a device
that is constantly running.
▪ Networking. This is how the NAS device is connected to
your computer(s). The network attachment can be via
ethernet cable (hardwired) or Wi-Fi. While many NAS
devices contain USB ports, these ports are not used to
connect the NAS device to your computer—these USB
ports are for connecting other devices to your NAS device,
whether for charging, for backing up the NAS device, or for
otherwise transferring data.
▪ Computer/CPU. NAS devices contain a CPU of some kind
since it takes computing intelligence and power
to manage the filesystem, read and write operations, run
applications, process multimedia files (such as video),
manage multiple users, and integrate with the cloud if
desired.

The Raspberry Pi is a low cost, credit-card sized computer that
plugs into a computer monitor or TV, and uses a standard
keyboard and mouse. It is a capable little device that enables
people of all ages to explore computing, and to learn how to
program in languages like Scratch and Python. It’s capable of
doing everything you’d expect a desktop computer to do, from
browsing the internet and playing high-definition video, to
making spreadsheets, word-processing, and playing games.
What’s more, the Raspberry Pi has the ability to interact with
the outside world, and has been used in a wide array of digital
maker projects, from music machines and parent detectors to
weather stations and tweeting birdhouses with infra-red
cameras. We want to see the Raspberry Pi being used by kids
all over the world to learn to program and understand how
computers work.

STEPS OF THE PROJECT

We’re going to use Raspberry Pi Imager to install Raspberry Pi
OS Lite onto your microSD card. Raspberry Pi Imager is
available for free for Windows, macOS, Ubuntu for x86 and
Raspberry Pi OS, and can be downloaded :-
https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/
Open the Imager application and connect your microSD card to
your computer
Connect your microSD card to your computer using an SD card
adapter. We recommend a minimum storage size of 16GB.
Install Raspberry Pi OS to your microSD card
Install Raspberry Pi OS
Lite

CHOOSE OS: Raspberry Pi OS can be found under Raspberry Pi
OS (other). We’re using the smaller-sized Raspberry Pi OS Lite,
as we do not need the desktop environment for our project.
Enable SSH: check the Enable SSH box and set a username and
password. You’ll need these details to access your Raspberry Pi
and network storage.
In Raspberry Pi Imager:
Open advanced menu: press Ctrl-Shift-X to bring up the
Raspberry Pi Imager advanced menu, or click the Advanced
Menu button.

Select save to close the advanced menu.
CHOOSE STORAGE : select your microSD card.
Finally, select Write.
Once complete, you can remove your microSD card from your
computer and insert it into your Raspberry Pi.

Storage options
For this tutorial, we’ll be using a portable USB hard drive and an
internal hard drive with a SATA-to-USB adapter. You can also
use a USB flash drive if you prefer. We recommend clearing
your drive of data, as you may need to format it later on in the
process.
To maintain a consistent power supply to your external hard
drives, it is best to use a powered USB hub to connect your
storage to your Raspberry Pi.
Your Raspberry Pi needs to be connected to your network via
an Ethernet cable. For most people, this means connecting the
device directly to your router. Once connected, attach your
storage to the powered USB hub, and the hub to your Raspberry
Pi. Lastly, connect your Raspberry Pi to the mains power via a
USB-C power supply unit.
Retrieving your IP address
In order to access your Raspberry Pi via SSH from your usual
computer, you’re going to need the Raspberry Pi’s IP address.
An IP address is a unique string of numbers that identifies a
device on your network. The easiest way to find it is to access
your home router and check what devices are connected via
Setting up your Raspberry Pi

Ethernet (LAN). The login details for accessing your router
should be printed on it (look for a sticker on the side or the
base), or alternatively you will be able to find them on the
website of the router’s manufacturer (or of your ISP if they
provided the router).
Connect via PUTTY
PuTTY is an open source application that supports multiple
network protocols, such as - SSH, Telnet, SCP, rlogin, serial
port and raw socket connection. PuTTY communication is
established over a TCP/IP socket, such as TTY, but it uses the
secure socket with public key encryption. A typed command is
sent and received a text response.
➢ Open Putty and enter the raspberry Pi address.
Make sure that SSH is selected and click open.
➢ Once Open is clicked, the raspberry Pi terminal
will open and you can login using the username
and password authentication

Installing OpenMediaVault to a
Raspberry Pi
1. Before we install OpenMediaVault, let’s update the existing
packages by running the following command.
IN TERMINAL :-
• sudo apt update
• sudo apt upgrade
Now we can run the following command to download the
OpenMediaVault-5 install script and pipe it directly
through to bash.
wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenMediaVault-Plugin-
Developers/installScript/master/install | sudo bash
Once complete, close Terminal.

Setting up OpenMediaVault
Open the internet browser on your usual computer and type
your Raspberry Pi’s IP address into the address bar.
After finishing the installation, you will be prompted with a login
screen when accessing the OMV server thru your web browser.
It is in the installation manual. I didn’t see it the first time either.
Sign in to OpenMediaVault using the following credentials:
Username: admin
Password: openmediavault
Change your OpenMediaVault admin password
Select the “cog” icon in the top right corner to open settings and change
your OpenMediaVault admin password.

In this section, we will show you how to set up a simple SMB/CIFS share
using OpenMediaVault 6 by using a USB thumb drive as a storage device
for OpenMediaVault 5. You can use a USB HDD/SSD if you want; the
process will be the same.
If you want to use a USB HDD/SSD or a thumb drive to store data for
OpenMediaVault, you have to format it first. To do that, go to Storage >
Disks and select the USB HDD/SSD or thumb drive that you want to use
as a storage device for the share and click Wipe.
Creating an SMB/CIFS Share using
OpenMediaVault 6

Next, navigate to Storage and File Systems. You likely won’t see
anything here, so select Create. Here, you can select your
storage device. We recommend selecting EXT4 for the drive
format. Select OK and close.
Select the file system to mount it and apply changes.

To share a folder, go to Access Rights Management > Shared
Folders and click Create.
Type in the Name of your shared folder, select the file system
that you just created from the Device dropdown menu, and
select the permissions for your shared folder using
the Permissions dropdown menu.
Once you have completed this step, click Save.
Now, you can share a folder.

After that we have to give Privilege to the added User
for read and write the files.

Navigate to Storage and Shared Folders and select Create. Here
you can name the folder, select which drive it should exist on,
and grant permissions to users. By default, the permissions
should be correct, but you can tweak them if you prefer a
different option for your network preferences. Save and apply
changes.
Lastly, we need to make sure computers on your network can
find the folder.
Navigate to Services and select SMB/CIFS.
Under Settings, check the Enabled box and save. Under Shares,
select Create, add your shared folder, and save.
Your NAS system should now be ready to use.

Access your NAS from Windows
Open Windows Explorer. In the path bar, write XXX.XXX.X.XXX
(using the IP address of your Raspberry Pi NAS).
That should create a new entry under Network in the left
navigation bar and show its contents. Double-click on the share
you want and enter the username and password that you
created in Raspberry Pi Imager when prompted.

Now INSTALLING DOCKER IN OMV6
Docker Raspberry Pi is a tool for developing, deploying and
executing applications using containers. It is lightweight and
most effective as compared to virtual machines.

Docker overview
Docker is an open platform for developing, shipping, and
running applications. Docker enables you to separate your
applications from your infrastructure so you can deliver
software quickly. With Docker, you can manage your
infrastructure in the same ways you manage your applications.
By taking advantage of Docker’s methodologies for shipping,
testing, and deploying code quickly, you can significantly reduce
the delay between writing code and running it in production.
The Docker platform
Docker provides the ability to package and run an application in
a loosely isolated environment called a container. The isolation
and security allows you to run many containers simultaneously
on a given host. Containers are lightweight and contain
everything needed to run the application, so you do not need to
rely on what is currently installed on the host. You can easily
share containers while you work, and be sure that everyone you
share with gets the same container that works in the same way.
Docker provides tooling and a platform to manage the lifecycle
of your containers:
Develop your application and its supporting components using
containers.
The container becomes the unit for distributing and testing your
application.
When you’re ready, deploy your application into your production
environment, as a container or an orchestrated service. This
works the same whether your production environment is a local
data center, a cloud provider, or a hybrid of the two.

What can I use Docker for?
Fast, consistent delivery of your applications
Docker streamlines the development lifecycle by allowing
developers to work in standardized environments using local
containers which provide your applications and services.
Containers are great for continuous integration and continuous
delivery (CI/CD) workflows.
Consider the following example scenario:
Your developers write code locally and share their work with
their colleagues using Docker containers.
They use Docker to push their applications into a test
environment and execute automated and manual tests.
When developers find bugs, they can fix them in the
development environment and redeploy them to the test
environment for testing and validation.
When testing is complete, getting the fix to the customer is as
simple as pushing the updated image to the production
environment.
Responsive deployment and scaling

Docker’s container-based platform allows for highly portable
workloads. Docker containers can run on a developer’s local
laptop, on physical or virtual machines in a data center, on cloud
providers, or in a mixture of environments.
Docker’s portability and lightweight nature also make it easy to
dynamically manage workloads, scaling up or tearing down
applications and services as business needs dictate, in near
real time.
Running more workloads on the same hardware
Docker is lightweight and fast. It provides a viable, cost-
effective alternative to hypervisor-based virtual machines, so
you can use more of your compute capacity to achieve your
business goals. Docker is perfect for high density environments
and for small and medium deployments where you need to do
more with fewer resources.

Docker Architecture
Docker uses a client-server architecture. The Docker client
talks to the Docker daemon, which does the heavy lifting of
building, running, and distributing your Docker containers. The
Docker client and daemon can run on the same system, or you
can connect a Docker client to a remote Docker daemon. The
Docker client and daemon communicate using a REST API, over
UNIX sockets or a network interface. Another Docker client is
Docker Compose, that lets you work with applications
consisting of a set of containers.

Conclusion
NAS are wonderful machines that are perfect for anyone that
wants to store large amounts of data, but wants to be able to
access it from anywhere. If you’re shackled to your home
computer and only ever access files from there, you may want
to look into setting up a RAID array rather than a NAS, but
small- and medium-sized organizations, as well as people that
are often on the move while working, will love the flexibility and
speed a NAS offers.
The downsides to NAS are that decent models do not come
cheap and security needs to be a concern that you keep in mind
at all times. We recommend that people unused to dealing with
technology take their time when setting up their NAS to avoid
ending up like our Europol agent mentioned earlier. Also, having
a good backup plan in place never hurts.
