CIFS Migration - Sharedup and Lgdup

 

Migrating a production Win2k3 CIFS server (Physical) to Celerra NS120 Dart 5.6 (vdm) but has issues with sharedup command with /SD option.

This is what I get when I run the sharedup command.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

sharedup \\CAAPPCLU1 \\CAAPPCLU1TMP Z: /SD /FI:Z_InputFILE.txt /LOG+:D:\sharedup\Z_InputFILE.log

Source server:CAAPPCLU1 5.2

Target server:CAAPPCLU1TMP 5.0 EMC-SNAS

 

Getting local group(s) from \\CAAPPCLU1...

Getting local group(s) from \\CAAPPCLU1TMP...

The local groups "ConfigMgr Remote Control Users" and "CAAPPCLU1_ConfigMgr Remote Control Users" do not exist on the \\CAAPPCLU1TMP server !

The local groups "HelpServicesGroup" and "CAAPPCLU1_HelpServicesGroup" do not exist on the \\CAAPPCLU1TMP server !

The local groups "TelnetClients" and "CAAPPCLU1_TelnetClients" do not exist on the \\CAAPPCLU1TMP server !

Please use lgdup utility to duplicate the missing local user(s)

or group(s) from \\CAAPPCLU1 to \\CAAPPCLU1TMP.

Per customer, they are not using local groups at all on the physical server.If I connect to celerra, the local groups "ConfigMgr Remote Control Users", "HelpServicesGroup" etc are already there in the Celerra CIFS Server(CAAPPCLU1TMP) and the user account which I use has all administrative privileges and its been part of source and target CIFS servers.

If I run the command without /SD option, the shares will be created in Celerra with out the share permissions .Whats wrong here and how can I run the command with /SD option? Any one has any idea whats wrong with this?

The input file has been properly edited to reflect the filesystem names.

@Drive:Z
:Share3;Share3;C:\CAAPPCLU1_Z\Z\Share3\Share3;
:share2;share2;C:\CAAPPCLU1_Z\Z\Share2;
:Share1;Share1;C:\CAAPPCLU1_Z\Z\Share1;

I also tried to run lgdup but it was failing with some errors. On the local physical host, I have granted permissions "Generate security audits" and Manage Auditing security log" to the user account which I was using. But on the Celerra I dont have an option to grant these permissions to the user account. emc46968 has been applied.

Usage: LGDUP [-r] [-p] [-s] [-v] [-l[+] logFile] [-nopriv]

the arguments need to be in the *exact* order, try


     lgdup -p -v  -l lgdup.log \\CAAPPCLU1 \\CAAPPCLU1TMP

there is a complete manual about emcopy/lgdup/sharedup - see

Using EMCUtilities for the CIFS Environment

available on the Celerra Doc CD or from Powerlink

I ran lgdup command.

lgdup -p -v \\CAAPPCLU1 \\CAAPPCLU1TMP -l lgdup.log and it gave error,

LGDUP 02.01

\\CAAPPCLU1 option is unknown ?

Duplicates the local groups and the privileges database from
a NT server to an EMC2 Celerra file server.


Usage: LGDUP [-r] [-p] [-s] [-v] [-l[+] logFile] [-nopriv]
source: reference local groups netbios name ( \\name)
target: target netbios name
Options:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The server \\CAAPPCLU1 is a virtual server on the two physical cluster servers, \\CAAPPCLU2 and \\CAAPPCLU3 . I tried replacing \\CAAPPCLU1 with active node on the cluster \\CAAPPCLU3 and got the same error.

I was unable to find the name \\CAAPPCLU1 on the Active directory but I could find physical servers in there. I have given granted generate security audits etc permissions to the user account from the active node on the cluster.

You will use an output and input file because the directory pathnames are different on source and destination.

Is that what you intend to do?

Does anybody know how to set the lgdup user rights from domain controler for the cifs server ?

basically what are the steps to setup the user rights (I am using the domain administrator to run lgdup) to set the rigths :


– Generate security audits

– Manage auditing and security log

Just add the account you are using to the local Adminstrator group of the Celerra CIFS server by using the MMC that manages local groups

Since by default the AD Administrators group where the CIFS server was joined is added there it also works to use an account that is a member of this domains domain administrators group

I am a bit confused as to what lgdup has to do with auditing?

lgdup per se has nothing to do with auditing.

The user account running lgdup should have the follwing rights:

--Member of either ‘Administrators’ or ‘Account Operators’ Local Groups on Source & Target Servers
--Member must have “Generate Security Audits” & “Manage Auditing & Security Log” Privileges within the NT Domain(s)
