Have you configured authentication? 

Mmuserauth service list --data-access-method file

Subject: [gpfsug-discuss] Issues getting SMB shares working.

Hello

I've recently taken over managing a GPFS installation providing storage to a research facility at Leeds University.

The system was setup by a colleague who recently left and before he left he configured NFSV4 access which services an important subset, but not all the users who require access to the storage. SMB access was part of the deployment plan, but he didn't have time to get that working.

I've been attempting to get an SMB share up and running myself and have enabled the SMB service with "mmces service enable SMB", have added a share with "mmsmb export add share /path/to/folder" and "mmsmb export list" seems to show everything is okay. However attempts to access the share through the floating protocol addresses fail and I have no idea how to diagnose the issue.

Any advice/help would be welcome.
