questions regarding celerra
Hello,
I am trying to learn emc celerra, It would be great if you all experienced could clarify few doubts of mine.
1) could I create any number of VDM's on physical data mover?, If so why cant I create each vdm with one cifs server?What would be advantages of having multiple cifs servers on one VDM?
2) How could I do NFS export of file system in VDM, if I need to have same filesystem accessed by both cifs and nfs
3)Is cifs server on VDM is like a normal windows server, If so how does it gets windows OS?
thanks

1) You can create 29 VDMs per datamover. You can have one or more CIFS server in each VDM. For example if i have a particular group of admins that will be managing multiple CIFS servers, then i put all of their CIFS servers in one VDM. VDMs allow you to create logical separations.
2) you can export it from the command line, basically you will export root file system of the VDM and then the actual file system, some like this:
/root_vdm_14/yourfilesystem
3) Celerra runs DART operating systems and emulates windows services.
