\section{About Plugins}
There are several kinds of plugins. Some of them are related to the storage daemon and some others to the file daemon. You can distinguish between them by their names:
\begin{bitemize}
\item a storage daemon plugin is named \btool{xxxx-sd.so}
\item a file daemon plugin is named \btool{yyyy-fd.so}
\end{bitemize}
Be sure to install the plugin in the right place (on the File Daemon or the Storage Daemon), to read the related documentation and to set it up correctly before use.
