Background Information
OviOS Linux is an independent, storage-focused operating system that merges open-source technologies to create a dedicated and performance-oriented storage system.
The primary objective is to maintain OviOS Linux as a pure storage, appliance-like operating system. It caters to users and administrators who require a reliable, out-of-the-box iSCSI, NFS, SMB, and FTP server. The distribution includes a unique command line shell called “ovios shell,” which aims to simplify system management.
