Integrate Antivirus with VNX5200 CIFSSERVER

If you haven't done so, you should download and review the EMC document, "Using VNX Event Enabler".

When configuring VEE, you must create a CIFS server on the physical datamover (server_2) to use for the Virus Checking service.  Per the documentation, you cannot use a CIFS server on a VDM for virus checking.  The CIFS server on the physical doesn't need any storage attached or CIFS shares created, just an IP address.

Let us know if that helps!

Hello Karl,

I have configured one  CIFSSERVER on VDM (the actual production) and another CIFSSERVER on Physical Data Mover which is just having an IP address as you told.

Below is the viruschecker.conf file what is the value i should enter for CIFSserver=? and msrpcuser=?

[nasadmin@VNX5200CS0 ~]$ vi viruschecker.conf

CIFSserver=

RPCRequestTimeout=20000

RPCRetryTimeout=4000

addr=10.209.4.30

highWaterMark=200

lowWaterMark=50

masks=*.*

maxsize=0xFFFFFFFF

msrpcuser=

shutdown=no

surveyTime=60

I think you're taking too me too literally.  Can you run the following command?

server_cifs server_2

Now, paste the current version of your viruschecker.conf file here.  Basically, your viruschecker.conf file should look something like:

CIFSserver=MY_CIFSSERVER_DM2 ( this is the name of the CIFS server on the physical data mover )

RPCRequestTimeout=20000

RPCRetryTimeout=4000

addr=10.10.200.20, 10.10.200.21, 10.10.200.22 (multiple AV servers are recommended for high availabiulity)

highWaterMark=200

lowWaterMark=50

masks=*.*

maxsize=0xFFFFFFFF

msrpcuser=AV_USER_ACCT (this is the name of the Domain User account configured on the AV servers)

shutdown=no

surveyTime=60

The CIFSserver entry should be the name of the CIFS server on the Physical Data Mover.  The MSRPCUSER is the name of the domain user account used to communicate with the AV servers.

Hello Karl,

I have given the CIFSserver="Cifs Server on Physical Data Mover" MSRPCUSER="Domain User which communicated with AV Server"

When i start the service by using the below command

#server_setup server_2 -Protocol viruschk -option start

i am getting the error invalid username

CIFS service of VDM FS1-VDM (state=loaded)

Home Directory Shares DISABLED

Below is the viruschecker.conf

masks=*.*

CIFSserver=IRSAUHFS02

RPCRequestTimeout=20000

RPCRetryTimeout=4000

addr=10.209.4.30

highWaterMark=200

lowWaterMark=50

maxsize=0xFFFFFFFF

msrpcuser=emcadmin                  

shutdown=no

surveyTime=60

In the above viruschecker.conf file i have given the user which was created when executing the below command

/nas/sbin/server_user server_2 -add -md5 -passwd emcadmin

Problem is if i give irshad\emcadmin (the domain account communicating with the AV server) as the username in the above command it takes the username as irshademcadmin and when i start the service it says invalid username.
