Hi Everyone, I'm trying to get smbclient to cooperate with my new EMC Celerra (just got it a little while ago) using kerberos. My windows domain environment is win2000 + sp4, the EMC is "joined" to the domain. I am using samba 3.0, fresh sources, and MIT KRB5 1.3.4, all freshly built. I join the domain, etc. everything is happy. I use kinit user@REALM to get my initial tgt.

I see list discussions on this subject from a few years back but they were very brief and, it seems, inconclusive. I would be interested in hearing from anybody who has discovered the "trick" to getting an EMC Celerra to join their Samba 3.x domain. I have an old NetApp Filer happily joined. I simply created an account with "smbldap-useradd -w filername" and when I then

Hi, I'm getting "Permission denied" error while connecting to a EMC cifs share from samba client on unix machine. Looking at the packet capture it is observed that ?samba client is authenticating with "anonymous" instead of the user name that has been provided. Here are flags received from EMC server as part of ?"Session Setup AndX Response, NTLMSSP_CHALLENGE,

That should say below, we are using Powerpath on the CX300's AND the CX600's... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- We are using Powerpath with CX300's and Emulex HBA's, also with OCFS on Red Hat 2.1 AS. Kernel upgrades are the biggest issue that we have, as some of the drivers are dependent on modules built for specific kernels, and if your

Our company recently did a poor job of migrating us to a new EMC system for NAS. We were immediately faced with its inability to translate permissions between UNIX and windows since our company hasn't figured out EMC's secure mode permissions. Since the EMC maintained the proper UNIX permissions, we tried using a samba server on linux to share out an NFS mount of the EMC partition to our

We are going to be migrating to a new EMC frame using Open Replicator. ZFS is sitting on volumes that are running MPXIO. So the controller number/disk number is going to change when we reboot the server. I would like to konw if anyone has done this and will the zfs filesystems "just work" and find the new disk id numbers when we go to zfs import the pool. Our process would be: zfs

Hi, We had received a new EMC storage (Clariion CX4) and the EMC analist has told us that CentOS aren't on their support list, but RHEL are :) Well anybody on the list has a CentOS host talking (iSCSI) with an EMC storage, preferably using the EMC Powerpath software, and can talk about you experience? Or I will need to buy some REHL licenses ? I'll put my hands on it only next

I'm setting up a new file server and I just can't seem to get the expected performance from ext3. Unfortunately I'm stuck with ext3 due to my use of Lustre. So I'm hoping you dear readers will send me some tips for increasing ext3 performance. The system is using an Areca hardware raid controller with 5 7200RPM SATA disks. The RAID controller has 128MB of cache and the disks

Hi all, Can anyone explain to me, or point me to any docs that explain how the following numbers map together? I have multiple LUNS exported to my HBA''s from multiple EMC arrays. zpool status, and /dev/dsk show device names like: c0t6006048000038794003753594D333837d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 c0t6006048000038794003753594D333838d0 ONLINE 0 0 0

Hi folks... trying to pick between jfs and xfs for a filesystem. In the past we've used jfs with CentOS + centosplus, however, an older post indicated that this may not be the best choice as the version of jfs included with the centosplus kernel would only be as new as the version that was included in the 2.6.18 kernel as RH doesn't backport fixes... It looks like xfs isn't part of

I have a couple EMC relabled ACBEL/Polytech UPSs which I'm unable to find anything about. What I do know is that ACBEL/Polytech is CoolerMaster, however, they don't make UPSs that I know of. These UPSs were used as part of an EMC Clarion array. Does anyone know anything about these? Thanks, Mark. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

What is the best write performance improvement anyone has seen (if any) on a ZFS stripe over EMC SAN? I''d be interested to hear results for both - striped and non-striped EMC config.

A couple years ago, we moved to Oracle RAC on Linux using ocfs that is SAN attached to an EMC CLARiiON. At the time, there was a reason that we did NOT use EMC's Powerpath (I just can't recall what that reason was). What I'd like to know is if there are any issues with introducing Powerpath now. * RHEL 2.1 AS * 2.4.9-e.38enterprise * ocfs-2.4.9-e-enterprise-1.0.13-1 * EMC

Greetings, I am trying to join a EMC Celerra NS502 CIFS server to our Samba 3.0.21a domain controller. According to EMC, I was told that we need to manually create the machine account first. How is the best way to do this? We are using an openLDAP backend, using the idealx scripts. Joining a windows machine from the computer properties dialog of that machine works perfectly. Things I have

I know this is a little off topic (not as usual, dammit!), but I figure at least one of y'all can handle this one. I have tried to configure my CentOS4.4 Plus desktop for samba sharing with the VMWare Windows that runs on it. However, no matter what I've done so far, I can't get the Windows to recognize this machine as a legitimate network destination. Here's my samba

Is anyone using CentOS 4.4 with an EMC Clariion SAN? In particular, I want to know if PowerPath and Naviagent will work on a CentOS 4 system connected to a san using Qlogic or Emulex cards. I tried a couple years ago with Fedora Core 1 or 2, and couldn't get the kernel modules from PowerPath to work since the kernel wasn't the official RHEL one. I'm most interested in

Hi I'm sorry if this question has been asked and answered. Does anyone know that EMC Celerra filer can join samba 3 domain? Thanks,

Hi there, have a strange behavior if i?ll create a zfs pool at an EMC PowerPath pseudo device. I can create a pool on emcpower0a but not on emcpower2a zpool core dumps with invalid argument .... ???? Thats my second maschine with powerpath and zfs the first one works fine, even zfs/powerpath and failover ... Is there anybody who has the same failure and a solution ? :) Greets Dominik
