Hi

Did you try to run this command from a CES designated node ?

If no, then try executing the command from a CES node:
	mmuserauth service create --data-access-type file --type userdefined

Hi,

While trying to add the userdefined auth, I receive error that SMB
service not enabled.
I am currently working on a spectrum scale cluster, and i dont have
the SMB package, I am waiting for it.. is there a way to export NFSv3
using the spectrum scale tools without SMB package ?
[root at LH20-GPFS1 ~]# mmuserauth service create --type userdefined
: SMB service not enabled. Enable SMB service first.
mmcesuserauthcrservice: Command failed. Examine previous error
messages to determine cause.


I exported the NFS via /etc/exports and than ./exportfs -a .. It works
fine, I was able to mount the gpfs export from another machine.. this
was my work-around since the spectrum scale tools failed to export
NFSv3
