hi Dynamox,
we need procedure for both, i am sure that we have AD, but design team the ones that use MACS
maybe they are using AFP, how to be sure about this.
thank you.

there is no procedure per say. VNX does not support AFP so if they are currently using it, good luck. You need to talk to the client and find out more about their environment and what they expect from the new solution.

If you really need AFP there are commercial gateway solutions

we did look at extremez-ip, in multi OS scenario where shares need to be shared with OSX and Windows ...PITA when it comes to ACL management.

Yes I meant EZ-IP
There is also open source – good old netatalk
Or 3rd party clients like Dave that implement CIFS for older MacOS clients
No simple step-by-step procedure I’m afraid
