The Responder and the File System
The Responder and the File System
Figure 1-2 also shows the file system used by the Compaq responder to access files.
When a remote FTAM initiator requests access to files, the Compaq FTAM responder
provides that service via its virtual filestore (VFS) component, which acts as an interface
to the file system. The set of files accessible via the VFS includes all files on the
Expand network to which the Compaq FTAM responder process’ system belongs.
The responder’s VFS maps the FTAM requests into file requests and translates between
FTAM and Guardian file structures and attributes. For more information on the VFS
and how it maps particular file structures and attributes, refer to Sections 3 and 4.
