<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We’re just about to start testing a new CES 4.2.0 cluster and at the stage of “joining” the cluster to our AD. What’s the bare minimum we need to get going with this? My Windows guy (who is more Linux but whatever) has suggested the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New";color:#1F497D">mmuserauth service create --type ad --data-access-method file<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New";color:#1F497D">--netbios-name store --user-name USERNAME --password
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New";color:#1F497D">--enable-nfs-kerberos --enable-kerberos<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New";color:#1F497D">--servers list,of,servers<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New";color:#1F497D">--idmap-range-size 1000000 --idmap-range 3000000 - 3500000 --unixmap-domains 'DOMAIN(500 - 2000000)'<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">He has also asked what the following is:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New";color:#1F497D">--idmap-role ???<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New";color:#1F497D">--idmap-range-size ??<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">All our LDAP GID/UIDs are coming from a system outside of GPFS so do we leave this blank, or say master Or, now I’ve re-read and mmuserauth page, is this purely for when you have AFM relationships and one GPFS cluster (the subordinate /
the second cluster) gets its UIDs and GIDs from another GPFS cluster (the master / the first one)?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For idmap-range-size is this essentially the highest number of users and groups you can have defined within Spectrum Scale? (I love how I’m using GPFS and SS interchangeably.. forgive me!)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Many thanks<o:p></o:p></p>
