Installing QNE Using Cloud Management Mode

Cloud Management Mode is ideal for organizations that have multiple remote devices. You can access centrally deploy and manage your devices in AMIZ Cloud and access them with your QNAP ID.

To deploy your device in this mode, you need to create an AMIZ Cloud join key and send the join key to the device administrator. For details, visit https://amizcloud.qnap.com and see Adding a Device Using an AMIZ Cloud Join Key.

Warning:

Installing QNE deletes all data on the drives. Back up your data before proceeding.

  1. Power on the device.
  2. Connect the device to your local area network.
  3. Run Qfinder Pro on a computer that is connected to the same local area network.
    Note:

    To download Qfinder Pro, go to https://www.qnap.com/utilities.

  4. Locate the switch on the list and then double-click the name or IP address.

    • To install the out-of-the-box version, click Next.

    • To check for the latest available version, click Check for Update, and then click Update. The device restarts after the wizard downloads the latest available version. If a newer version is not available, the wizard automatically displays the Smart Installation Guide.

    Important:

    QNE stores the data of virtual machines and containers on application disks. If you have already installed disks on the device, QNE automatically configures disks and chooses an appropriate RAID type based on the number of disks. If you have not installed disks, QNAP recommends shutting down the device after the initialization and then installing disks.
