Morning All!
Anyone ever tried exporting a StorNext CVFS filesystem from a Linux box???
I?ve got this Samba server (3.5.6) running on CentOS 5.4 and it?s working
fine, exporting ext3, nfs and an IBM GPFS filesystem just fine. So I know
Samba is good an my configuration is working.
I tried to add the exportation of a StorNext CVFS volume and that doesn?t
work. All the other volumes still work just fine, but when I try to connect
to this new volume I get ... Is not accessible, you might not have
permission, etc ... The parameter is incorrect.
Hoping someone else might have gone down this road before... For those who
haven?t, Quantum StorNext is a clustered/HA filesystem that really sits
somewhere between the category of vaporware and smokeware! It?s very poorly
documented and their support sucks ? standard answer is ?you can?t do that?
for just about everything. Now my StorNext server is cheerfully exporting
his filesystem natively to Windows, Linux and Mac clients, so I know he?s
working fine.
I also know this is most likely not a Samba problem, but with Quantum?s ?you
can?t do that? attitude, I?m hoping someone here has some knowledge that the
documentation missed!
Thanks,
