vnx emulator and cava

Hi,

i'm trying to learn something about the cava antivirus solution for vnx systems.

I downloaded the vnx simulator, created a global cifs server (gcifs.domain.local) and a vdm (vdm2.domain.local)

i also setup a windows server to install the event enabler and our antivirus (mcafee 8.8).

now i can start viruschk on the vnx and i get:

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

server_2 :

10 threads started.

1 Checker IP Address(es):

172.17.100.48                                  ERROR_AUTH 5 at Wed Feb 18 14:30:58 2015 (GMT-00:00)

                                               MS-RPC over SMB, CAVA version: 6.6.0.0, ntStatus: SUCCESS

Scan all virus checkers every 10 seconds.

When all virus checkers are offline:

Continue to work with Virus Checking and CIFS.

Scan on read disable.

Panic handler registered for 65 chunks.

MS-RPC User: adma26905eu

MS-RPC ClientName: gcifs.domain.local

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

the "error auth 5" should mean that the user running the event enabler is missing the virus checking privilege.

when i try to connect to gcifs.domain.local on the  mmc snapin for data mover management i get an "access denied" and so

i cannot grant the needed checking privilege.

what can i try to do ?

best regards

If vdm2 is your CIFS server name then
vdm2\C$
vdm2\C$> should work

Same as with a physical server

Before you run the MMC make sure you have a security context as Administrator on the VNX CIFS server

Easiest way is to connect a share

Then open C$ and make sure you are Administrator

Shares dont matter

If you have working shares then you do have a CIFS server

See server_cifs

That CIFS server always has a C$ share – just like a Windows server

thanks you put me on the right way !!!

ok, i found !! the matter was that my account (domain account) has not the right permissions in my domain to acces c$

so i unjoined  the cifs server from the domain and readded after the command


server_param ALL -f cifs -m djAddAdminToLg -v 1

thanks

Name resolution maybe ?

You should always be able to connect to
>CIFS_server_name>\C$
%3eCIFS_server_name%3e\C$>

VDM or not doesn’t matter

on my vdm2 i have 2 shares :

- folder1

- folder2

i can access \\vdm2\folder1 and i can access \\vdm2\folder2

i can also write files, move them or delete

but no connection to c$

maybe i'm missing something on the initial appliance configuration ?

name resolution is working

You’re very welcome

Yes permissions there can be tricky and if you don’t have the right permission often the Windows response isn’t helpful
