Access Zone

Hello,

In onefs 7.0.2.x  while creating access zones no path input was required.

but in ones 7.2.x.x we require path for creating access zones.

Access zone created under 7.0.2.x  not cluster is at onefs 7.2.x.x


isi zone zones create --path=/ifs/customers/cust2/huh --name=huh --verbose

moon-3# isi zone zones create --path=/ifs/customers/cust2/huh --name=huh --verbose
New Zone path /ifs/customers/cust2/huh conflicts with path /ifs/customers in zone moon. New zone paths are not allowed to overlap : Invalid argument

Can we create new zone as /ifs/newcustomer and for shares if i use /ifs/customers/cust2/huh

Will this work ?

Is there a way to bypass the path ?

If NOT

What are workaround available for creating new access zones ?

Thanks

Starting in 7.1.1, there can be no overlap in the root paths of access zones.  The idea was that access zones should be separate zones that should not mix due to things like different authentication sources.

However, starting in 8.0, you can overlap the root paths again, but the GUI will warn you that you are doing it, but it will allow it.  Between 7.1.1.x and 7.2.1.x, there is no exception to the rule.

Just be careful when doing so, especially with authentication.

Thanks Adam,

One query here if root path for a zone is set to /ifs/customer what if we changes it to /ifs/customer/custA will there be any impact in accessing any shares or and communication failure with AD. I am asking this as its a production cluster and need to make changes.

Thanks
