Setting Up Restrictive ACLs
StorNext User’s Guide 334
Navigating to the Authentication tab of the Client Configuration Windows
utility gives the administrator the ability to disable the NIS/PCNFSD
mapping on a client-by-client basis by selecting
Use Active Directory.
The domain server must be at least Windows 2003 or above to support
RFC 2307 mapping.
Setting Up Restrictive ACLs 1
When setting up restrictive ACLs on a SNFS file system, it is important to
understand how SNFS system services are run, especially the account
under which the services are run. The Windows default account is the
local administrator account, but this can be changed on the Properties tab
of each system service.
When sharing restricted file systems, the account under which SNFS
system services are run must be included in the ACL for the root of the
file system and all other shares associated with the SNFS file system.
Doing this allows the shares to be re-shared upon reboot.
Default Single-Path I/O Retry Behavior
The I/O retry behavior has changed as of StorNext 3.1.2. In prior releases,
when only a single path to the storage existed and an I/O error was
returned by the disk device driver, StorNext failed the I/O operation.
Beginning with version 3.1.2, by default StorNext continuously retries I/
O operations until they succeed, regardless of the number of I/O paths. If
desired, you can override this new behavior by using the new I/O Retry
Time feature. For additional information about I/O Retry Time, consult
the mount_cvfs man page or the Windows help file.
